Just for future reference, there are three ways to get to the Island. Ferry, the bridge and you can actually fly here as well. I know it's a super crazy concept that such a small Island would have an airport, but we do, and we support international flights as well.

Snow mobile, xcountry absolutely. Curling is big there too in the winter. But the downhill is barely a bunnyhill even by NB standards :D

Beautiful beach, flash air, affordable house(compare with Toronto and Vancouver), and most which impressed me is the very nice islanders. And now, I think this is my 2nd home(the other one in Shanghai, China), and I am an islander too. Sorry, my English still have some problem, hope you guys can understand what I say. :-)

Great video! I grew up on PEI, I watched your video for nostalgia's sake as I've been away for most of my 20s. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. Personally, I love the fact that there are no freeways or twinned highways. It makes for communities that naturally blend into each other. We're more connected because of it and it certainly suits our quaint energy. With our small population and the layout of all the villages it makes so much sense. Not sure if you've ever been to Salt Spring Island BC, but I encourage you to check it out. It's the paradise I've been seeking since I left home (no traffic lights!). We're small, we're friendly, and waiting for you. In fact, you can stay at my place. Canadian Island hospitality at it finest! Cheers eh. ;)

We were the crazy tourists on PEI in January 2015. Yes, almost everything was closed, but the winter was amazing there too. Never seen amount of snow, two snowstorms (one on the bridge ha-ha), wild animals etc. We loved it, and our dog too. Charlottetown with its snow covered streets is a hidden gem at that time. After watching your video, maybe we will go at summertime too. :)

Another thing with PEI, Anne of Green Gables is not plastered everywhere! Check out the small towns rich in history from their stories of rum runners to the architecture in the homes and buildings. Take time to talk to the locals not tour guides. We have so much more to offer than the overly commercialized parts like Cavendish.

My grandfather came from PEI and I have been there about 20 times in the last 40 years. There have been lots of changes in that time and growth around Charlottetown. I agree with a lot of what you said but the Confederation Bridge has never been an issue for me - as a driver or passenger. In a regular car, you really can't see over the edge so really don't even know you are going over water. Cavendish area has also grown tremendously since the 60's. I usually go over and check things out just to see what's changed but don't stay for too long. There are other less touristy areas I'd rather explore. The only thing I "hate" about PEI is leaving. Always makes me sad!

I remember visiting PEI the summer of 1988. People were debating the merits and demerits of the upcoming Confederation Bridge. Anyway, it wasn't done yet, so I took a ferry over from New Brunswick. Very beautiful, peaceful place. Lots of interesting history, as mentioned. It's a shame that most Canadians never even get the chance to visit PEI, being quite far and isolated from the major cities. Sometimes I wish I was born and raised in the countryside there, just to know what that lifestyle is really like. It seems so beautiful and the people are friendly.

I've visited PEI 4 times so far and I'm going again this summer (I'm from Europe btw and have family living on PEI). So true about the people, they're amazingly friendly and helpful. Last year our car broke down in the middle of the night. The next morning a guy pulled over, he turned out to be a car mecanic and he actully fixed our car for free. We only bought the stuff he needed and gave him 10 dollars for gas. Thank you PEI! One of my favorite places to eat is the farmers market in Charlottetown. Great food & cheap :p And I agree: the beaches are very beautiful. You can have a private beach when you get away from the touristy places. I even went camping on a beach (which is illegal, but very awesome). Camping in Canada is great btw, I really recommend it. Have you visited the Acadian Museum in Summerside? I went there the first time I was on PEI. Haven't visited the Green Gables stuff yet (maybe this summer).

From not finding any NB videos I imagine you passed through as well. You should revisit and actually not like the island we embrace winter here with skidoo cross country skiing hockey etc. Summer we got the warmest beaches and lots of trees...lol but lots of little hidden gems. By the way we don't mesure in i ch or feet like the states but in centimeters. The island has less snow but gets really windy in winter you want feet of snow go to northern new brunswick where every snowfall is 30 centimeters or in american, 12 inch. We calculate distance in time not miles or kilometers and in Atlantic Canada if a pedestrian sticks out there arm, you STOP ✋ in PEI they just cross so be careful. Prince edward island is a tourist trap, go after labor day and save half your money...

Love your videos! I've been binge watching them while I save for my next trip. But you guys! YOU HAVE to go to Newfoundland. Mabey you've already been, but seriously if you haven't it's absolutely breathtaking. And I'm not talking a few days like minimum two weeks three ideally. I know it's a lot to commit but from st John's and bonivsita/ trinity in the east, burin and the French islands of saint pierre and michelon in the south. Terra nova/ twillingate/ la scie and fleur de lys in the central north. GROS MORNE in the west and the home of the Vikings in st Anthony and lanse aux meadows in the north. I could go on forever. But ofcourse there are love and hates, but one thing you will LOVE when you are there is the people. The culture, the history and how it lives on through the people is totally unique and intriguing. Its so intrinsically different from the rest of Canada, and coupled with the breathtaking scenery it's well worth the visit. I rarely comment on KZbin videos but you've prompted me to write such a long comment to you folks because I truly believe in the island and your honest and helpful travel advice! I know you guys have a full plate but if you ever do want to go, I'm from there (while sadly I live in Toronto now) I do travel to different peninsulas and ends of the road there every year, the small outport communities are spectacular and unique in their own different ways so its my mission is to visit them all.) If you ever want to go I'd love to help you with anything you need from tips or recommendations to loves/hates or even to help arrange private trips with my various family who live there. Please go! If your kids loved Iceland I'm sure newfoundland will thrill them and you! Also travel videos there would help others go there and enjoy their stay and come back happy or recommend to it others! And really that's what would make a difference to the people there at the end of the day! instagram.com/andrea.of.birchmount/

wow, i never thought that the bridge would be scary, but i now that i think of it, i guess it might be intimidating for some people. one thing to remember when driving on island highways, is that our highways have virtually no exits (there are only one or two i can think of and they're right after the confed bridge); other roads don't gracefully merge with our highways, they meet perpendicularly as they do on smaller roads, so when someone enters, you have to slow down from highway speed to about half that, suddenly-and you have to do that very often because the bad drivers are impatient and cut in front of you.

One of the negatives was lots of tourists. It is true. We get overcrowded with them during the summer. It can be a bit much- especially in Cavendish and downtown Charlottetown. But tourist watching is also very fun if you’re a local 😛. Hehe Last summer it felt so empty without tourists. But it was also nice to have the island to ourselves for one summer… even with things being a bit different because of covid. And yes the bridge is expensive. Us islanders have to pay for a bridge, plane or ferry to just leave the island. 🤷🏼‍♀️ But people who go to the mainland often usually get a bridge pass. Saves a bit of money. We are blessed with the most beautiful beaches and trails. And a slower pace of life. I don’t want to live anywhere else ❤️

"Not the best place to live" Yup, a real shock to the system to move from BC only to discover that you will always be an outsider if you weren't born here. In relation to BC, it's pretty sterile here in almost every sense of the word. No wilderness, no wildlife, expensive to shop with little variety to choose from, wall-to-wall people. A really disappointing experience after listening to the PEI glee club braying continuously before we arrived. I doubt we'll return we we move.

But what surprised me was when you said how inexpensive it was, compared with other tourist places in Canada. I always imagined it would be more expensive because of its isolation/remoteness - nice to know that's not the case.

Try the west coast. The snow rarely stays on the ground for a day, and the temperature rarely strays below freezing.

Your the first I have heard that did not like the bride. And most winters are not that bad hear, but we do get the odd one with a lot of snow. the last 2 or 3 we had hardly any. How ever the one be for that PEI got dumped on big time. But snow can be a lot of fun, just enjoy it.

Now it’s Covid -19 -2020 and I’m not allowed to travel back home to PEI. And am relying on PEI videos to feed my home sickness. My advice is if you go to PEI DON’T just stick to Cavendish. The EAST end of the island is actually the best place to go. Stay in a small cottage and embrace the local world.

I went to Prince Edward Island In around August 2014, so, about the same time you went there with your family. It's a beautiful place! My favorite things about it were definitely the nature, the beatuy, the red rocks and sand and the food. We found a nice place by the sea (well actually, a good family friend kinda found it for us, because daddy is kinda useless with directions and looking for good things to do... lol) and I had so much great food. I really loved the grilled haddock and fresh potato chips, just like I was hoping for when I came there with their amazing potatoes and all that. ALso, like I said, we came at around the same time, so I just hope you didn't see me and my brother fight in front of the confederation house... haha. We were fighting because I wanted to read all the signs and everyone ws leaving. We fight for the stupidest reasons sometimes, but we still love each other. And plus, daddy got it all on film, so that kinda embarrassed us enough to want to forgive each other faster... haha! Amazing stuff man! And please pardon my obnoxiously comments... I hope they don't bother you too much. Peace! =^-^=
