Located in Montague’s historic train station, Beck’s Nautical Gift Store offers visitors a chance to shop for wonderful home decor and local handcrafts, all while taking in the beautiful sights of the Montague River Marina. Opening yearly at the beginning of June and lasting throughout the summer, it’s the perfect place to spend a leisurely summer’s afternoon, browsing the wide collection that makes Beck’s a tourist favourite. Filled to the brim with lighthouses, lanterns, fishing boats, sea captains and stuffed lobsters, it’s the perfect place to find a memorable piece to add that nautical flair to your home, cottage or cabin decor. You might just be able to smell the salty sea air in the comfort of your living room. How about spicing up your meals with salt and pepper from a lighthouse-shaped shaker or drinking your morning coffee from a mug covered in lobsters? Even better, brighten your deck with some PEI Windchimes, handcrafted by Peter Baker, or cover your wall with a beautiful painting of one of the many sandy beaches. Of course, there’s more than just nautically themed gifts, Beck’s also offers a wide variety of clothing and accessories, from stylish brands like Charlie Paige and Simply Noelle to locally handcrafted jewelry and accessories. They offer a beautifully crafted Gemstone and Celtic Knot bracelet that combines Celtic Knots which represents the everlasting flow of energy, enlightenment, and love with beautiful, natural Canadian gemstones for a truly lovely piece. With so much to offer, you’ll be sure to find that
special piece to spruce up your wardrobe.
Make sure you try something uniquely PEI, like the Island Potato Soap, handcrafted in small batches by White Gables in Hope River, PEI. It features Potato Juice, Coconut Oil, Palm Oil, Olive Oil, and Essential Oils for a richly moisturizing soap that is gentle on your skin. Beck’s is part of The Station; a tourist welcome centre that features a variety of shops and a cafe located on the lower level of the marina in the Town of Montague. Originally built as a branch railway station for the Prince Edward Island Railway, it features a distinct steeply pitched roof with large brackets supporting wide eaves. Several of the original large rectangular nine by nine windows remain in the facade, providing a stunning view of the Montague River from within, and an authentic classic architecture from without. Nancy has truly cultivated a space that combines the style and aesthetics of a leisurely day lounging on the beach or a sunny afternoon spent kicking back on the deck of your own personal yacht. Make your home your own personal seaside getaway with a visit to Beck’s Nautical Gift shop.
