Almost an island, Pinkney's Point is reached by a 2 km stretch of road winding through expansive salt water marshes. A large breakwater along the road blocks the Atlantic wind and waves and creates a rocky beach that beckons treasure seekers. The village itself has a population of about 300 people, most of whom make a living from the sea. Pinkney's Point is a hidden jewel of Yarmouth County for its simple isolation- but there are no services along the road or in the village.

Bicycle Tour: a flat terrain with stunning coastal vistas. Be sure to bring your camera.
Coastal Hiking: walk along the rocky beach finding treasure and watch the waves crashing along the shore.
Birding: many migratory birds appear along the shore, in ponds and in the salt marshes. Oft spotted species include sea ducks & alcids (including dovekie).
