Prince Edward Island National Park
of Canada
10.04.05
Prince Edward Island National Park is home
to sand dunes, barrier islands and sand pits, fresh water ponds, salt
marshes, and forests, beaches, sandstone cliffs, wetlands and forests,
which was set aside in 1937 to protect for all time the coastal landscape
characteristic of the Maritime Plain natural region.
The
National Park also features unique cultural resources, notably Green
Gables and Dalvay-by-the-Sea National Historic Site. In 1998, six
kilometres of the Greenwich Peninsula were added to the Park to protect
unique dune formations, rare plants and animals, as well as archaeological
findings dating back 10,000 years.
