Things to do in PEI
What we recommend if you're looking to venture outside of Charlottetown and explore the Island.
We prefer the New Glasgow Lobster Suppers (co-founded and owned by one of Brodie’s distant relatives). Definitely book in advance or show up as early as possible as this is a VERY popular spot! https://peilobstersuppers.com/

Only open during the summer. Their food is delicious but they also have the most beautiful setting overlooking the Hunter River in New Glasgow, PEI. About 30-45 minutes away from Charlottetown. Walk around the beautiful gardens while you wait for your table!

one of our favourite North Shore beaches. Situated within a National Park, so there is an entry fee, but worth it for the beautiful, quieter beach, the dunes and the hiking trails. https://www.pc.gc.ca/en/pn-np/pe/pei-ipe/visit/greenwich
