Canadian Yachting April 2021 - 12

THINGS TO DO ON PEI
1. EAT SEAFOOD
Malpeque Bay is famous worldwide for its superb oysters, and
they're featured in many of the Island's restaurants - including
the legendary Malpeque Oyster Barn, within easy walking distance of the town docks. You can also try Carr's Oyster Bar, in
the community of Stanley Bridge, where you enjoy shellfish on
the patio as you watch great blue herons patrol the shallows. Or
make your way to North Rustico and enjoy a fresh lobster dinner
overlooking the harbour at the famous Blue Mussel Café - rated
the finest seafood restaurant in PEI year after year.
2. GO TO A CEILIDH
A Ceilidh - pronounced kay-lee - is a giant party, Islandstyle! These festive affairs feature spirited music, great food and
beverages. Just about every small town on the Island has regular
Ceilidhs throughout the summer months. Watch for signs or, better yet, ask around for the lowdown on what's happening where.
3. SEE A LIGHTHOUSE
One would expect an island to have more than its share of
lighthouses, and there are about 50 on PEI. Most are marked on
the provincial road map. Many are open to the public, and the
view from the top has to be seen to be believed.
4. VISIT GREEN GABLES
PEI's north coast provided the dramatic inspiration for Lucy
Maude Montgomery's timeless classic Anne of Green Gables.
Much of the story is set at the Green Gables farm, located in
Cavendish and now known as the Green Gables National
Heritage Site. It's a bit of a hike from the closest marina (take a
taxi or enjoy a 12 kilometer bike ride through the National Park
from North Rustico) but an interesting piece of Canadiana that
attracts visitors from around the world.
