PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND HAS IT ALL | Exploring Canada's Smallest (and least populated) Province

Prince Edward Island should absolutely be on your travel bucket list if you are looking for serenity, beautiful nature, super friendly locals and delicious fresh seafood! After spending just a few days exploring this gorgeous island, I feel much more relaxed than I have in ages. Join me and Ryan as we do a roadtrip of the National Park, visit Anne of Green Gables and spend some time in the beautiful resort town of Cavendish. Also a very big thank you to Maytree Eco Retreat for the incredible stay at their luxury domes! Would highly recommend their accommodations and will have their booking link down below:

[@Villageman112]

Probably the most chill and relaxed places in Canada.

[@gabriellagirardi4741]

Thank you very much Alina. This island looks absolutely amazing and the nature is just stunning and it is worth a visit, maybe one day.

[@AlinaMcleod]

It certainly is and my pleasure! Hope you get to visit sometime!

[@farmasinema]

The lawns are perfect because we have nothing better to do.

[@gediminasmurauskas7817]

Hi Alina! Prince Edward Island is quintessentially beautiful! Going back to my grad student days at the U of S, Saskatoon and PEI roughly had the same population. Today, Saskatoon has roughly 100,000 more inhabitants! PEI was also the home of colorful Canadian singer / storyteller Stompin' Tom Connors (from Skinners Pond): "It's Bud the spud from the bright red mud, rolling down the highway smiling. The spuds are big on the back of Bud's rig. They're from Prince Edward Island. They're from Prince Edward Island!".

[@AlinaMcleod]

Haha didn’t know they were from there

[@cathygillies7271]

Great video shots and choice of music. PEI was always our summer vacation when our kids were small. We would rent a cottage and take the kids to lots of kid-friendly parks, etc. My second favourite place in all of Canada and I live in the 'other island' just across the bay -- Cape Breton

[@AlinaMcleod]

Thank you so much! It is such a special place :)

[@wongjefx980]

[@movingtocalgary01]

You’re doing good job 👍 showcasing whole of Canada 🇨🇦 to many who doesn’t know about Canada 🇨🇦 outside Toronto

[@melfruS]

Thanks for sharing this beautiful place like you.

[@ralfmoll5727]

Hi Alina, Epic drone shots! As of Your channels summary, congratulations for the quarter million subscribers and the amazing figure of 500 videos online! Best regards, Ralf

[@AlinaMcleod]

Thank you so much! :)

[@jean-yveslegall2562]

17 seconds ! That's how long it took me at the beginning of the video to tell myself that I was going to have a good time 😀PEI is a so beautiful place😍

[@paulbethell5258]

It may be a children’s book, however I really enjoyed it as an adult. It is a fantastic read!

[@bnice8940]

Thank you for sharing. BEAUTIFUL people and BEAUTIFUL province. 😊😊

[@daniellopez-nj1bf]

nice recorrido en Prince edward nice panoramica, beach , parque , comida y te miras bonita! comiendo

[@NADOYAGANDA]

I really envy you Alina living in big territory. I'm living in Korea. small country next to Japan that you are familiar much. Korean peninsular is so small so few places to visit and unable to feel the various changes of weather nor geological diversity. Just A few hours drive would drive us any tip of the territory. Some place which is knowned for nice place is always full of people. You know it is very blessed thing that you can enjoy those beautiful and serene places with few people because you were born as a canadian. I always see the state Canada as such a point of view.

[@AlinaMcleod]

That is true. I am very grateful that Canada has so much space and ability to be 'alone' in so many places.

[@janellek21]

Hope you enjoy PEI, Alina! Say hi to Anne for me 😆

[@melsvids73]

PEI is on my bucket list of travel. I still have my Anne books from my teen years from the 80s. I wouldn't mind living there too!

[@mjaymew]

I watched a recent show called Anne with an E, and it inspired me to put PEI on my travel bucket list as well.

[@mkumarthephrophet8533]

Don't waste your time, there is not much there. Ann of Green Gables is a scam.

[@maxplanck9055]

A nice place to visit, prince edward was how I imagined rural eastern Canada to be, good to see it with you alina before your Asia trip, I had never seen the island before, thanks much love ✌️❤️🇬🇧

[@GangesterBoys-ci9po]

[@costasworldofmusicmemories5792]

It's always a treat when Harriet and I visit PEI . We try to get there every other year. We have friends that have a summer home there. Stunning Landscapes. Great food. Especially the Lobsters and Potatoes. You have covered all spots we've been to. Great video as always, Alina Sending you much love ❤ from Richmond, Va. Harriet , Jim and Yuki

[@mehranvalizade9615]

Hi Alina, I really enjoy watching your videos, it really helped me to get familiar with Canada and its beautiful culture and landscapes . I genuinely appreciate that❤.

[@AlinaMcleod]

I’m so glad, thank you!

[@HassanYarr430]

❤❤Hi Alina ❤❤so beautiful and amazing video ❤❤

[@paulbethell5258]

Thank you for you tour of PEI. It is someplace I have wanted to visit as it reminds me of the time I spent in Maine as a child. I love the “northern” ocean landforms lining the shore.

[@AlinaMcleod]

My pleasure! I’ve heard very good things about Maine, will have to check it out sometime

[@SAD_NA_MILLION]

Very interesting video, thanks.

[@bernandobernando6463]

hello, I'm Nando from Indonesia, I always watch and download your videos. You are very beautiful and youthful. Gbu

[@jimross7648]

PEI is like all the Maritimes, is a place on my list that I haven't been and probably won't get to for a while. As a prairie boy all I know about the place is from people I worked with who were from the province, and TV. As I think I mentioned I was Ueno Park in Tokyo during Sakura season and a women came up excited because she thought I was an American. When I informed her I was a Canadian, she really got excited and asked me all about Anne Of Green Gables. I've never read the book, but had seen a few bits of the TV series so I could fake a little knowledge on the subject which satisfied her. Your PEI trip looked great. Someday maybe.

[@AlinaMcleod]

I hope you do get out here sometime, will remind you of the prairies ever so slightly but also feels like a whole new adventure! Also gotta watch Anne of Green Gables before you go!

[@singhmandeep8011]

Thanks for video

[@mushirbhaikothi875]

Beautiful

[@informationcollectionpost3257]

Yes, Anne of Anne of Green Gables is the book my wife has read and why she wants to visit PEI. ( yes, that book, definitely not a guy thing, shoot my one Grandmother just went down and applied at the glass plant in the early 1900's, the only place that would hire women in SW Pennsylvania besides a boarding house for the young men miners) Sorry Ryan, but I buzzed through your 13th best whatever & an ad popped up to assist in my expedite through that portion of the video. Island looks quiet in the beginning of off season and like there is not a lot of touresty stuff unless its Anne of Green Gables. If I make it there I will just have to get through the Anne of Green Gables stuff so that I can enjoy the rest of the Island.Actually, PEI doesn't sound like a bad ace to visit.

[@Sindale1]

Awesome video!

[@MrYoup11]

Alina of Green Saskatchewan sounds like a good title for a book

Spent 2 week's there TDY and ate some great lobster!

[@SuperFlatrock]

It is fashionable to talk about exotic locations and to think Canada is only about big cities. The reality is that Canada has endless opportunities for quality living most people can only dream about. Take my advice, get away from Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver! I have family from PEI. I visit often. Canada's smallest province is a true gem. Affordable housing, a laid back lifestyle, plenty of services, low crime, beautiful scenery and easy access to large urban areas.

[@AlinaMcleod]

It does have a lot to offer!

[@salmajama9431]

How much for one of these? accommodation iloved that dome ❤

[@vinodpund1574]

Wonderful nature and fantastic video 🎉

[@korinnehopkinson680]

Actually it's not the smallest island in Canada....

[@margsangster8994]

Enjoying your video thank you. Please can you tell me what exact dates you were there please, so I know when things are closed in places as you highlighted in the Cavendish part please? Cheers from Australia

[@AlinaMcleod]

For sure. We went in late September and the last day of the season is September 2. June 5 is also the start of the season. Happy travels!

[@reneerikolsen9694]

That island looks amazing - definitely worth a visit! Great video.

[@AlinaMcleod]

It sure is. Thank you

The Lawns are good because they have good lawnmowers and care about the landscape

[@grantcivyt]

Alina, let me recommend renaming this video to something having to do with Anne of Green Gables. Actually maybe you could reference "Anne with an E"instead since Netflix probably created a renewed interest. Modified thumbnail would be great! Beautiful vid and beautiful island. Thanks for sharing!

[@Brittney.m]

What month did you travel there? How was the weather?

[@yury2509]

Alina, what about the history of the PEI ? When the Europeans started ti settle here ? Number of the indigenous population before the colonization ? Try to speak to the locals about PEI character, the lifestyle.

[@elcarlitos1916]

Hello Alina, How are you today? I liked your video about Prince Edward Island, it's cool that you travel. If you allow it, we can stay in touch. A hug from Colombia.

[@nataliaetingen4254]

We have been in PEI a few years ago. The nature and ocean are beautiful. The prices for lobster the same like in Toronto or even hire. The restaurants are not great at all. And prices for groceries were higher that’s in Toronto.

[@AlinaMcleod]

Yeah prices are by no means cheap sadly.

[@awanderfullifeblog]

I was obsessed with Anne of Green Gables, so lovely to see it today and thru your storytelling

[@JimMork]

Not sure about anyone else, but when I see these remote lodgings, I always wonder certain things. How is it electrified? How is it possible to handle sewage. Wherever one happens to live or event book, some basic things always will be an issue. Camp in the woods? Dig a latrine. Even the many people who "house" themselves in RVs have the same issues as those who can afford some standard housing. Nice standup shower, but that means water coming in, dirty water going out. Yeh, the surroundings are very comforting and sweet, but housing is housing.

[@AlinaMcleod]

There's a lot of people who live on acreages or remote living places. No, it's not easy but it's definitely doable. Anyone who lives in those kind of places obviously has to know what they're doing and know how to fix a lot of things themselves.
