On this slice of Prince Edward Island’s north shore on the Gulf of St. Lawrence, you can stroll the windswept dunes and admire red sandstone cliffs and green rolling hills. If you love the water, you can push off from the shore at North Rustico in a kayak or deep-sea fishing charter. More than 300 miles of old Prince Edward Island Railway tracks have been pulled up to create the multi-use Confederation Trail for bicycling with virtually no grades. If golf is your game, there are 11 courses within a few minutes drive.
