The Inside Scoop

As Islanders, we are a naturally welcoming bunch. That’s why we love to invite you into our homes, feed you till your belly hurts and leave you smiling. We also love to give you recommendations for our favourite “you name it’s”. Whether it’s for the best lobster roll on PEI, the most secluded beach or the loudest toe tapping ceilidhs, we have got you covered. So until you get here, use this blog as your “local guide” to help plan your trip. We can’t wait to see you!
