This coastal drive is dotted with numerous beaches, offering a more secluded and natural experience compared to staying directly in the town centre. For those seeking pristine sandy shores, Crescent Beach, just outside of Lockeport, is a top option, known for its crescent shape and soft sand. Another excellent choice is Sand Hills Beach Provincial Park, which boasts extensive dunes and a long, shallow shoreline, ideal for walking and exploring.

Couples looking for a relaxing beach holiday will find this area particularly appealing. The hotels and guesthouses along the Lighthouse Route often provide direct access to the coast or are just a short drive from several beautiful beaches, allowing for peaceful days by the sea and stunning sunsets.

Families will also appreciate the shallow waters at places like Sand Hills Beach, which are suitable for younger children to play in.
What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Shelburne?
The most popular time to stay in a beach hotel in Shelburne is during July and August.

You'll find a lively option around the waterfront, with many local shops and eateries fully open and bustling. Families, in particular, will appreciate the extended daylight hours and the abundance of outdoor activities available, from kayaking to exploring historical sites along the water.

As another option, June presents a wonderful alternative. While the temperatures are a little cooler, typically between 15°C and 20°C, it's still very pleasant for beach activities and exploring. During June, you may find better value on hotel rates and it can be easier to secure reservations at the more sought-after beachside accommodations.
