Just as the surrounding waters carve and mold the land, our people will shape your experience.

3 T here s something special about an island. Prince Edward Island will draw you into its comfortable, relaxed pace. Freed from the stresses of your regular routine, you ll soon find yourself living on Island Time. Just as the surrounding waters carve and mold the land, our people will shape your experience. Time on PEI goes beyond the jagged red cliffs, peaceful sandy beaches, and rolling green hills. It s more than impossibly-fresh seafood, creative artisans, and world-class golf. It s all of those things, and something a little harder to identify. As you board our boats, tour our studios, and visit our homes, you ll realize that you ve also been welcomed into our hearts. Welcome to our island! PAUL BAGLOLE
