The basics
The Dunes Studio Gallery and Café displays a wide range of artworks and handcrafted items, some made by locals and others amassed by the gallery owners during their travels around Southeast Asia. The Dunes also features an on-side pottery studio, where you can catch daily demonstrations from potters at work.
Because of its convenient setting on the dune-dotted coast of northern central Prince Edward Island, Dunes Studio Gallery is a common stop-off on sightseeing tours. Tours typically follow routes along Green Gables Shore—the north half of the Central Coastal Drive—and combine visits to the gallery with trips to scenic viewpoints and attractions such as the dune-backed Brackley Beach and Dalvay-By-The-Sea in Prince Edward Island National Park.
Things to know before you go
- The gallery is a must for travelers looking to purchase high-quality gifts and one-off items made on the island.
- Lunch at the café is walk-in only, though dinner spots can be reserved in advance by phone.
- A kids’ menu is available at the café.
How to get there
The Dunes Studio Gallery is located in New Glasgow on the north-central shore of Prince Edward Island. Driving from Charlottetown takes about 20–25 minutes. Public transit is limited so if you don’t have access to a car, it’s best to go as part of a guided tour.
