The North Cape Coastal Drive on Prince Edward Island
The North Cape Coastal Drive on Prince Edward Island

Down-home hospitality, fresh seafood, and the best “dam burger” await you on the North Cape Coastal Drive. Witness where two waters collide over the longest natural rock reef in North America. Beautiful beaches, sweeping vistas, and unique attractions welcome you at every turn. Go Up West to enjoy music festivals, theatres, museums, and cultural centres. Visit an alpaca farm and a village made of bottles. Go golfing, lobster fishing, or beachcombing. Stomp your feet to Island music and get “Shucked In.” Take some time to play along the shore, too. I promise you will be glad you did.

Christmas at the Station
Christmas at the Station

Take McAdam Railway Station - a provincial and national treasure, gather a village of volunteers, and decorate every nook and cranny to create a holiday wonderland. Next, add lights, glitter and sparkle, and a well-timed snowstorm. Bake cookies for the children, and make an abundance of hot apple cider. Add festive music - a carol… “It’s Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas,” then have the stationmaster open the doors and welcome visitors to Christmas at the Station.
