Indulge your senses

Artists love islands they say, and the County has a magnetic pull for many creative people. Al Purdy, Canada's best loved poet made his home in Ameliasburgh, and today's arts community is multi-faceted, strong and growing. Painters, photographers, glass artists, blacksmiths, quiltmakers, writers, musicians and actors together with their local patrons are making the County a vibrant cultural destination.

Loving life

The County's 800 kms of spectacular shoreline is great for sailing, fishing, swimming and scuba diving or just watching the sunset over a deep blue bay. Long country roads are ideal for cycling, hiking and Sunday drives. Gentle delight of the countryside or vigorous activity, you choose.

Find something new

Ours is a relaxed, small town world where personal service makes shopping a pleasure and browsing and chatting are part of the fun. On main streets and quiet country roads you'll find everything you need from home baked bread to fine art. What you won't find is big box stores. We do things differently here. Come and find something new.

Cater to your senses

Prince Edward County is a beautiful rural island where 9th generation farmers rub shoulders with hi-tech winemakers. It has more sommeliers per capita than you would have thought possible. Agricultural communities steeped in history now cater to sophisticated tastes with organic farms, artisan cheese, chocolatiers, wineries and incredible local produce. No wonder several of the top chefs and winemakers in the country have made the County their home.
