About Evangeline Beach
Evangeline Beach is a world-renowned shorebird migration site on the Minas Basin. Each July and August, hundreds of thousands of semipalmated sandpipers stop here during their migration from the Arctic to South America — a spectacular natural phenomenon. The vast tidal flats and red mud create a unique beachscape, and the sunsets over Blomidon are unforgettable.
