Perusing Prince Edward Island
Exploring Canada's smallest, most charming province
TRAVEL Canada
Prince Edward Island (PEI) may be Canada's smallest province, but what it lacks in size it makes up for with bags of charm and scenic appeal. Anchored in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, this is an island of eroded cliffs and rust-red sandy beaches, a lighthouse-topped coastline that encapsulates an interior of flat pastureland personified by a collection of quaint towns and villages. Charlottetown, the capital city, appears straight out of a Victorian picture book, while the destination's numerous national parks and historic sites testify to PEI's Acadian roots, its wonderful wildlife, and literary heritage. So, isn't about time you perused Prince Edward Island?
