Explore Prince Edward Island

Back

A small island with a big heart

PEI is Canada's smallest province, a tiny island in the Maritimes with a population under 150,000. Windswept red-sand beaches stretch around the island and life moves at a bit of a slower pace. Explore the landscapes that inspired the Anne of Green Gables stories and enjoy the arts and culture of Charlottetown.

PEI is known for

  • Sunsets
  • Beaches
  • Lighthouses
  • Fishing
  • Cycling

What People Love About This Province

  • It's the home of Anne of Green Gables
  • Long, red-sand beaches that you sometimes get all to yourself
  • Confederation Trail, for walking or cycling, runs the entire length of the island
  • Top notch restaurants, theatre and shops in Charlottetown

Did You Know?

  • The stories of Anne of Green Gables took place in Prince Edward Island, and you can visit the farmhouse that inspired the books
  • Prince Edward Island wasn’t connected to the Canada mainland by bridge until 1997
  • Over 6% of Prince Edward Island is dedicated to growing potatoes.
