PEI
If you're a fan of Anne of Green Gables or just want a serene, relaxing vacation, check out Prince Edward Island. I share my vacation highlights so you can make the most out of your trip to Canada and PEI, the home of Lucy Maud Montgomery and the inspiration for Anne of Green Gables.
Prince Edward Island (PEI or P.E.I.; French: Île-du-Prince-Édouard) is a province of Canada consisting of the island of the same name, and several much smaller islands. Prince Edward Island is one of the three Maritime Provinces and is the smallest province in both land area and population. It is part of the traditional lands of the Mi'kmaq, and became a British colony in the 1700s and was federated into Canada as a province in 1873. Its capital is Charlottetown. According to the 2016 census, the province of Prince Edward Island has 142,907 residents.
The backbone of the economy is farming; it produces 25% of Canada's potatoes. The island has several informal names: "Garden of the Gulf," referring to the pastoral scenery and lush agricultural lands throughout the province; and "Birthplace of Confederation" or "Cradle of Confederation",[5] referring to the Charlottetown Conference in 1864, although PEI did not join Confederation until 1873, when it became the seventh Canadian province. Historically, PEI is one of Canada's older settlements and demographically still reflects older immigration to the country, with Celtic, Anglo-Saxon and French surnames being dominant to this day.
PEI is located about 200 kilometres (120 miles) north of Halifax, Nova Scotia and 600
Prince Edward Island is located in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, west of Cape Breton Island, north of the Nova Scotia peninsula, and east of New Brunswick. Its southern shore bounds the Northumberland Strait. The island has two urban areas. The largest surrounds Charlottetown Harbour, situated centrally on the island's southern shore, and consists of the capital city Charlottetown, and suburban towns Cornwall and Stratford and a developing urban fringe. A much smaller urban area surrounds Summerside Harbour, situated on the southern shore 40 km (25 mi) west of Charlottetown Harbour, and consists primarily of the city of Summerside. As with all natural harbours on the island, Charlottetown and Summerside harbours are created by rias.
The island's landscape is pastoral. Rolling hills, woods, reddish white sand beaches, ocean coves and the famous red soil have given Prince Edward Island a reputation as a province of outstanding natural beauty. The provincial government has enacted laws to preserve the landscape through regulation, although there is a lack of consistent enforcement, and an absence of province-wide zoning and land-use planning.[citation needed] Under the Planning Act of the province, municipalities have the option to assume responsibility for land-use planning through the development and adoption of official plans and land use bylaws. Thirty-one municipalities have taken responsibility for planning. In areas where municipalities have not assumed responsibility for planning, the Province remains responsible for development control.

This is my childhood dream to go to Prince Edward Island because I love the story about Anne of green gables and it coming soon in July
Is anyone else watching this IN pei
watching this in pei
As someone who lives on PEI, I find it kind of boring, but it's great to hear that city folk like it!😊
Joseph Cole u aint missin much. People are people. Enjoy your life.
i was lookin for takin admission in holland college, have you heard of it, and is it a great place to learn?
@Jodi L the grass is always greener.
I get that. My hometown is also a beach town that caters to tourists. I hated living there! The grass is always greener for sure. I love PEI, though.
I work at the Green Gables house as a tour guide, musician and actor! I'm glad you enjoyed your trip, I feel so lucky to be born and raised on such a beautiful island :)
+Rachel Moore such a beautiful place! You're so lucky. We want to go back soon!
this green gable house is the actual house the author's grandparents's cousin lived, then was made over to resemble the house in the book?
+Jeff Thompson yep! this is the original house LM Montgomerys cousins lived in, and is redecorated according to the descriptions in the novel using 1800s antiques from around PEI
i really enjoyed my visit here, I went through the haunted woods to buy the 8 Anne Books, and got them stamped saying where I bought them!
You are a liar.
I just came back from a trip to PEI in May. I love, love this place! I've been to many places in NA, but PEI is definitely the best place to live and enjoy life! You get to live a modem life, but still stay close to the incredible beauty of nature. This is a real heaven.
I dreamed of visiting there the grass was so green the flowers smelled so beautiful and the birds sang a song as I walked through a meadow in the distance I could see Anne's house! I wish I could never leave that place!
I lived on prince Edward island since I was born
Please help me to get there I have applied so many time in many way spend lots of time and Money but just don't work out 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😬😬😬😬😬
@@Pasannoor
We are full. Stay out please
ImpossibleGamer HD u r so lucky
Does it really get Hot in there in the Summer?
@@vcislander2509 fuck you punk.
We live in Charlottetown, I and my daughter. We love it here, people are so nice, so lovely. We also are lockdown during this period, but luckily we just have 27 cases and all of them recovered.
That's good news!
PEI is my birthplace and home. I will live here as long as possible. I absolutely love it.
I'm actually rather interested in moving to PEI. From what I've seen of it, it seems to be a lovely, small, unique and slow paced province. How friendly is it there overall would you say?
Pretty friendly. :) It's not like a big city where you just walk and keep to yourself. A lot (not all) will at least give a smile walking past. It's nice. :)
astromonkey5000 thanks for all your valuable information! I have wanted to visit since forever! PEI has always been a dream since I read the Anne novels. Which month would you say is the nicest, but also not congested with too many tourists. Also, is diversity welcomed in PEI? Thanks!
Genevieve yes very welcoming place
hey i was lookin for takin admission in holland college pei, have you heard of it, is it nice?
"I was kind of overwhelmed at how large it is" hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Wow! I love how informative this was!
I had fun watching your video. The changes are striking since I was last there in 1965 as a 16 year-old pedaling a bicycle from Maine! Mahalo (thank you) from Hawai'i.
If and when you ever return, be sure to check out The Dunes Gallery and Cafe, Orwell Historical Village, Point Prim Lught House and Point Prim Chowder House.
Born and bred Islander, so it usually is a case of not seeing the forest for the trees , however we run a small B&B and during the Summer we here over and over just how amazing our little Isle is.
Glad you enjoyed yourself.
I was actually planning on returning this year but now maybe next summer. Your suggestions will populate my list!
Panmure Island! Murray Harbor North, Cape Bear....best of the " real Island"
Until I can visit, this is the next best thing!
~A HUGE Anne fan 💐
Love it! I became one after my trip.
Thank you taking the time for to post, we're heading there in a couple days!
the bridge, is from province of New Brunswick to PEI.
Somebody seems proud of his wife :) (With good reason) Seriously, great vid! That Green Gables house is unbelievable. Thanks for posting!
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed your video! Thanks
Incredible VLOG. Very well spoken, articulate and informative, Thank you
I HATE the fact you have to pay to get off Island, because of that I haven't left the Island since I was 3 years old. I'm glad I'll be able to go off island this summer for the first time in FOREVER, so I can actually see what people mean by Pei has red dirt cause I can kinda see it but to me that is what all dirt looks like. Oh, well the video was pretty good, it shows some of the great stuff about Pei!!!
I'm from Prince Edward Island, and I have been to pretty much every place you were to. It's a beautiful island, and I watched this video to remember most of it. I moved across the country recently, and believe me. Driving is NOT the best way to do so. Anyway, loved the video bro.
+Tori Provost thanks! Obviously, I loved PEI. Amazing place!
I live in Charlottetown, Pei is beautiful!
Winter..not so nice!
+Vdub 1949 winter always sucks, but it makes it worth it when you can enjoy PEI the rest of the time.
what s the coldest it can get during winter
How far is green gables shore from charlottetown?
@@liba About a 30 minute drive.
@@threedogslong Thanks. We had our tickets and hotel booked when the lockdowns started. Our trip will have to wait until next summer :(
Can't wait to go back! Awesome vacation
This was a really amazing insight into PEI! Thank you for sharing your journey, video was fantastic.
+Yash Patel thanks!
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Peter for sharing!
This summer we visited PEI. PEI is a beautiful place to visit.
I live there, I love it. It’s great
I searched to watch this because of the series cartoon of Anne of the green gables, charlotte, etc...those are the lovely places that i want to go to...
Love from the Philippines
I live on PEI, thanks for the kind words and visiting us. Hope you return someday.
God bless
I hope I can get back sometime! There were so many other places that I didn’t get to check out! And I’m crazing Cows creamery.
I live on the island and thanks for coming
Great footage, great commentary and great tips.Great video overall !!! Thanks !!!
Thanks for this. Moving to PEI in August from the Bahamas.
+Lorraine Cartwright I love PEI! Congrats!
Omg your gonna love it I'm 12 and my fav part is the safety lol cause there no tornados and wore lol
+Bella_vancolen I hope so. Def looking forward to the safety and peace of mind
Lo Cargill what part are you moving to? are you from jamaica, haiti?
Lo Cargill wow that’s a drastic change of scenery! Good luck!
I went to P.E.I. in 1986. My husband's family is from there. I wanted to move there so bad, but my husband wanted to stay in Ontario. There was no bridge back then. His dad's family was from Alberton, and his mom's family was from Tignish.
You never mentioned Summerside or Prince County area. Beautiful places. Literally all of PEI is breathtaking with many places that are memorable.
Unlike most people in this comment section, I am not from Charlottetown, I am from Tignish, where fishing and lobster catching is HUGE!
Bruh, I'm from Summerside
Beautiful !
Awesome video. Thank you. Super helpful!
+Arlene Francis thank YOU!
was just there, I LOVED it
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing this
A wonderful review!
There is a Walmart in Summerside too :)
Wonderful video! Thank you.
My mom grew up in PEI and she said they never had seafood, which I thought was so weird since they're surrounded by water.
+Sharon I was surprised too, but it made sense the more that I learned about it. I guess I was expecting it to be like the New England area.
@@petervonpanda Back in the day... Lobster was for poor people. Baloney was for the wealthy.
Thanks for sharing.
the first shot on the island (the one with the fields and trees) is just a few minutes from my house! If you're ever back, let me know and I can give you a few local places to check out!
+Nevin Clark I would love to go back. Hopefully soon!
*Beautiful video...thanks*
awesome job!
love this
+Svetlana Neumann thanks!
There are lots of treasures to find in Canada’s smallest province.
I will visit there!
Really enjoyed this, the film, the insights, Thank You. Planning to ride the Confederation trail, and roads if they're not too hazardous for bicyclists, and Airbnb about.
+John Hoyle awesome! That sounds like an epic trip!
Oi
Wonderful, informative video! 💖
This has been on my wishlist to visit since I was a child, as I was brought up on the Anne series. However, I'm disabled and chronically ill now and can't travel, so I've been completely voyeuristic and enjoyed your travels instead! Thank you! 😊
I'd love to see an update if you ever go back and visit the places mentioned in the comments.
I live in Australia but have always felt really drawn to PEI and Canada in general. I only made it to Niagara Falls once.
I think there are certain paves in the world that speak to us, fit our values and ideals, suit our physical preferences and give us peace. I'd love to find that place and move there for the rest of my life. I wonder if this was it?!
I'm just now seeing this... I was planning a trip there this year (2020) but you know.... COVID-19. I was going to fly into Boston and catch a cruise to Nova Scotia, PEI then up through the St. Lawrence waterway back down to Quebec City, then fly home. I've never seen that part of the world and was so looking forward to it. Thanks for the great information!
You’ll love it when you get there. I want to go back!!
I live in Nova Scotia, I have travelled PEI and it is very pretty!
+Brian M I visited Halifax and some other cities before PEI. Loved it! Absolutely loved the waterfront boardwalk in Halifax!
The City is beautiful and Fisherman's Market is the main attraction! Thank you Peter for shedding light on the most picturesque places in Canada! My home!
OMG my house was o this !!!!lol I live beside Anna's house so
Bella_vancolen wow how does it feel living and raising there? How does it feel when you was a child? And how does it feel now?
*Unturned theme starts playing*
Very interesting and informative. Great video.
Thanks!
I've been infatuated with Canada sense I was old enough to read and comprehend I'd swear I was a Canadian in a past life all the videos I watch about different places up there and old Canadian TV shows and commercials I'm gonna get out of south east Tennessee one of these days I'm 32 now and still never been up there but I will make it one day and hope to meet some friendly faces when I get there
Canada is safe, peaceful, & welcoming. Just remember it's an actual Country, so don't expect it to be like the tv shows. 🇨🇦
you missed the best parts of are island tignish Victoria west cape basin head rustico a must see when you come here great vid
+big fish just means I have to go back
Great video, awesome channel!
Thanks!
Beautiful
The tourism village is actually borden..... but it's more gateway that's the tourist area
Living here it is interesting to see the shallowness of this tourist experience. Looks like it was a great time, and I'm sure it is similar to the experience of many Anne fans who visit our beautiful province, but there is so much more to see and do!
Ahahh, I wish I could visit! It's my dream, more than ever now! *cries in 2020*
I want to go back!!
@@petervonpanda I can imagine! It’s looks so beautiful there!!
great video!
Thanks!
it's just cool that you got to visit Canada! I'm a Floridian and I visit other states but almost only other southern states, the last five states i visited (and this is over the course of a few years) were Texas, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee and one northern state Illinois, and it was mostly just staying with family so I didn't get to see much of those states either, don't get me wrong I love the south and I think my region gets a bad rap. but I really want to branch out and travel more, what do you think would be a good starting trip to ease myself into it?
+fralican sounds nice
I went there yesterday’s
I've in every part of pei that he is talking about
If you want to travel the Wood Island ferry, use it to get ON to the island rather than OFF since it is more expensive than the bridge. Even with a motor home, getting on is free.
If you have a knitter in your gang, get and follow the "fiber trail" map.
If you are doing any reasonable amount of travel in Canada, get a Parks Canada Discovery Pass. On PEI it is good for the National parks and the Anne stuff. If NS is part of your plans you will easily be able to use the rest of your cost then you still have a year to exploit it.
As an islander, it's weird seeing places that I go to regularly in a youtube video
You're lucky! It's a paradise!
I've never left pei unless I was visiting
The nature is beautiful. PEI locals are friendly. The best season is spring and summer from April to Oct. The rest of year is cold, rainy, and snowing. Seafood, shrimps, lobsters, and mussles are tasty. Vegetables are ok. Other foods are prepcked and procesed. Very disappointing. Anne of Green Gables attractions are touristic and boring. Reading the book suffices.
Actually the Lucy maid house is still up I would know I live in pei
😍😍😍
I’m going there on six days
Thank you for the information. There is one thing if I may suggest.: I get so dizzy by watching your film, Camara moved too fast... 😟
👏👏👏
The bridge is 9 miles long
I live in PEI!!!!!!
I'm Live in Quebec but I'm going there
PEI ❤
Is it a good place to go on my march break.
12:12 this town looks like it was made in SIMS 3.
Great video! Thanks for all the information. I am considering a trip to PEI next summer (2019). It sounds very expensive. When were you there? Aside from the jellyfish, were you able to swim in the water? (Was it warm enough to swim?)
Hey I live here come around July water isn’t as warm as Jamaica 😂😔😔😉😉😉but it’s worm go to basin head !! Busy but suck a great day there, also go to cavendish beach great stress and not noisy time ❤️✌🏻✌🏻
I've been there
Thanks 👍✳️👍✳️👍✳️
Very informative, Did you visit the island during June 2015?
+zhchumenbeing thanks! I was there July 2015.
How about the famous potato in PEI ?
What do mean by controversial start on bridge?

👍👍👍
please tell us how much it was the trip,I mean food, accommodation all the basic things
+Carlitox b good question. It was all in US dollars for me. Dalvay by the sea was about $200/night. Inn at Bay Fortune was about the same. The feast dinner at the Inn was about $90/person. The Green Gables entrance fee was about $10/person.
