About the Business

Rushtons Beach | Nova Scotia Parks | Popular beach featuring the warm salt waters of the Northumberland Strait. Broad sandbars at low tide and the salt marsh attract a great variety of birds. Located about 4km (2.5 mi) east of Brule in Marshville. *Due to storm damage, there was no access to the beach from the boardwalk. The stairs have been replaced, the ramp was damaged beyond repair.

Such a gorgeous beach! This is a perfect beach for families as it is shallow with lots of sandbars and warm waters. Be sure to put your stuff on the dry sand near the dunes otherwise you may be surprised by the tides.

My family and I love this beach! It is the perfect beach for swimming. When the tide is in you do not have to walk far into the water to be able to take a dip and when the tide is out its perfect for kids. The sand is beautiful and there's not many rocks. Perfect sand for sand castle building! It also boasts an awesome picnic area before you get to the beach. I will say that it is quite a walk for anyone who may have mobility issues but the board walk is nice and the path is level enough for a wheelchair to make it over. At the end of the boardwalk there are only steps leading to the beach so please be prepared. If there was another walkway we did not see it.

Absolutely love this beach!You just need to think and plan ahead before going. Definitely need to check the tide times and yes, the beach is a popular one. Hence, think and plan ahead for when to go. We went after a long weekend and it was perfect for my little toddlers.

Beautiful beach !! Lots of space and nice sandy area, tidal zone is HUGE so good for kids because you can walk out about 100 metered and still only be at your knees. Definitely love this beach

Wow! Fantastic beach park, and VERY popular. If you are coming here to get away from it all, this is the wrong place. Jam-packed with people and activities, which is wonderful as well. The place is a perfect place for families to bring their kids. They have outhouses and picnic tables before you head down to the trail to the beach. The park closes at 8:00 pm and the gates are secured. A beautiful beach park.

Beautiful park/beach. Only thing is a bit of a hike to the beach itself but we enjoy hiking as well as the puppies. So overall we enjoy it a lot
