Stop 1
Our stop in Cavendish at the Green Gables historic site is a must see for the fan of Anne of Green Gables Fans.

This is a commercial harbour at work on the island. Fishing seasons include, lobster, mussels, oysters. If you want to stop for lunch, very close by to the harbour area, is a great local restaurant called Fin Folk Food. It is such a wonderful spot to get lunch, amazing dunes views and a casual spot to get a great lobster roll, or fish n' chips. Take it from me, I worked as a chef for years, and this place does have excellent seafood!
3
A great stop to see a working harbour on the North shore of Prince Edward Island. During lobster season, we will stop by and see the lobsters as they arrive from the North shore fishermen. There are also some great vistas to take some very memorable pictures.
