Canada's Food Island is a culinary wonderland that stretches from one end to the other. Whatever your taste may be—a well-known, traditional dish, a magnificent culinary work of art, a wonderful dessert, or a quick, savoury bite on the go—you'll find yourself thinking back on and reliving your dining experiences over and over.

There's nothing quite like being on an island, especially when its pristine beaches are just waiting to be explored. There's an ideal beach that will satisfy your needs, whether it's to lounge in the sun, play in the calm waves, build a complex sandcastle, stroll down the shore, or take in a breathtaking sunset.

Angling for trout and Atlantic salmon is a time honoured tradition on PEI. The Angling Resource and Information Centre offers information on licensing, seasons, limits, locations and fish species.

Let your journey begin. The Confederation Trail runs tip-to-tip across Prince Edward Island and is best explored on foot or bicycle. Built on the decommissioned railway line, the main trail is 273 kilometers from west to east - Tignish to Elmira. Branch trails run through small towns and communities, including the heart of Charlottetown. The gradients along this rolled stone dust trail never exceed two percent making it suitable for all fitness levels. In summer and early fall, equestrians now have access to some portions of the trail. Along the way, you'll find accommodation, food and service options a short distance from the trail. Some road travel may be required; please check with service providers about distance and any concerns about getting to your destination safely.

With over 400 fairways. Closer than you can imagine. A golfer's paradise. Prince Edward Island may be small in size, but we're big in golf! We have more than 25 amazing courses across the Island. It is always possible to play more than one course per day. Our fairways can accommodate all skill levels from beginner to professional.

Whether you seek to dip a paddle into a quiet river or experience the thrill of catching wind on a kiteboard, Prince Edward Island offers stunning harbours, breathtaking coastlines and knowledgeable outfitters – so go ahead, get wet.
