Cavendish and Charlottetown

Just a short 20-minute drive away, Cavendish is one of the island's most popular destinations. Best known as the home of Anne of Green Gables, it's the perfect place to step back in time. Explore Avonlea Village, stroll through Anne's house, or enjoy a scenic carriage ride. Cavendish also offers plenty of shopping and activities for all ages. A longtime favourite is Grandpa's Antique Photo Studio, where you can dress up in gangster outfits, Victorian-era costumes, and more for a fun family photo.

Be sure to visit the Cavendish Boardwalk, home to the famous Cows Ice Cream, named the "world's best ice cream" by Tauck World Travel. You'll also find plenty of shopping, from clothing and handbags to jewelry, fish 'n chips, and more.

Cavendish Beach, located in Cavendish National Park, is a beautiful white-sand beach that's popular with visitors. There's plenty of space to relax, along with amenities like food vendors and washrooms.

For even more family fun, Cavendish is home to amusement and water parks for all ages. Sandspit features rides, slides, bumper cars, bumper boats, and more. Right across the street, Shining Waters offers a full water park experience. Combined passes for both attractions are available, making it easy to enjoy a full day of adventure.
