Apparently Carter's Beach will make you feel like you're in the Caribbean

We didn't know the first thing about Carter's Beach until our Facebook poll put it near the top of the list of favourite beaches in the Maritimes. So we did some research, and kept running into articles comparing the white sands and clear green waters to some of the nicest beaches in the Caribbean. And now we get it, and are eager to check it out.

There were so many photos of the white sands leading into calm, clear green water, fading into the dark blue of the ocean that we had to make that the palette for our design. The only thing is.... we hear the water stays pretty chilly all year round.

What's your favourite 'local' beach?

Not the Cavendishes or Parlees of the world... You can already stop at any of those tourist trap shops and buy merch singing their praises. We thought it would be neat to use our print-on-demand setup to celebrate the lesser known beaches of the region. Since we're not doing massive runs of thousands of shirts (we print each shirt to order), we can focus on the amazing beaches that are a bit off the beaten path.

So what's your favourite local beach? Follow us on Facebook and to let us know. We can't guarantee we'll make them all, but we'll make a few and see how it goes! If you do want your pick, guaranteed, try one of our ("I'd rather be..." would work well.)
