Some say it is the friendliest province
in Canada. This small east-coast island
is nestled in the Atlantic, in the
mouth of the St. Lawrence River. The
capital city, Charlottetown,
is home to the world-renowned Charlottetown
Festival's play Anne of Green
Gables. Indeed, tourists, who
"come from away," flock to see Green
Gables itself.
On idyllic Prince Edward Island (pop. 135,294),
the community will be feeding you fresh lobster
and showing you the local hiking trails before
you have time to say, "Anne of Green Gables."
Population:
135,294
Location:
In the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and joined
by the Confederation Bridge to the province of
New Brunswick.
