    Born and raised in PEI (a red head and former Anne of Green Gables look-a-like winner) and although I’ve moved away, PEI still holds a special place in my heart! PEI’s north shore beaches are some of my favourite in the world for awesome soft sand texture, stunning coastlines, lack of rockiness for the most part, good swimming (just be smart and watch for rip currents, if in doubt don’t go out if the waves are huge) and long stretches that mean you can walk for ages! My family has cottages there and I love to spend as much time as I can there in the summer. I’m so hoping quarantine restrictions will be relaxed and I can make it over there this year. It just won’t be summer if I don’t make it to a PEI beach! The lupins in June/early July are gorgeous and the fall colours stunning in September. I think Avonlea Village is different now than when you were there. Now it is mostly restaurants and gift shops. There are so many other Anne of Green Gables sights than just the house (which was built after the books). There is L.M. Montgomery’s Birth Place and the Anne of Green Museum. The musical also plays in Charlottetown at the Confederation Centre of the Arts. PEI is so much more than just Anne of Green Gables though. Don’t forget to check out PEI’s lighthouses, scenic drives, and dairy bars! Much love 😘 ❤️ to PEI 🇨🇦

    Years ago, I had a young traveling ICU RN preceptee who conveyed that wherever he may visit or travel in this world, PEI will always remain his beautiful home. After reading the books as a child and hearing my young preceptee as an adult, I want to visit this beautiful place. As always, thank you for sharing😊

    I visited last July! Loved it. Of course I went to the Anne of Green Gables House and they have a new interpretive center which is well done. PEI National Park on the north coast was my favorite. Province House unfortunately was completely torn up for renovation and Charlottetown traffic was a mess. I stayed in Summerside, the second largest city, on the western side and enjoyed it. Don’t forget to take a photo of the Confereration Bridge. Victoria is a cute town with a playhouse for live theater on weekends.

    The confederation trail is nice to bike/walk as well and going kayaking or canoeing in some of the little rivers like Morell river is gorgeous as well. Someone mentioned the rip tides though at the beaches and there HAVE been tourists that didn't know about them and have had unfortunate encounters. They are dangerous, so be sure to read up about that before you play in the waves (watch your kids in the water for sure). It's too bad you seem to have gone too late to get the Rainbow Valley experience :( It closed down years ago but was a much loved and very creative little theme park for families. If you want to know about the local history then a book by David Weale is a great way to get some older local stories and tales of ghosts and superstitions. PEI is apparently the place with the most Scottish ancestry outside of Scotland itself and does subtly share lots of culture. The sayings and accents are usually pretty interesting to tourists as well. Check out that celtic music scene on the east end with the Rollo Bay fiddle festival in July or the Ceilidh's around the island!
