The island exudes charm

With its slow and peaceful pace of life, the island will charm you. In Cape Traverse, see the Confederation Bridge, then take a trip through Acadian country via Mont-Carmel. Further north, the port of Malpeque, with its millions of delicious oysters, awaits you.

Take the Green Pine Coast Drive to Prince Edward Island National Park and go for a swim at Dalvay Beach. Finally, in Charlottetown, Confederation Landing Park and the charming Great George Street are worth a visit. The same goes for Victoria Park and its red-sand beach. As the local slogan says: “The sweetness is on the island…”
