Planning a Trip

Getting There

Route 2 is the fastest way to travel east-west through the county, although it lacks charm. Route 6 is the main route along the county's north coast; following the highway involves a number of turns at intersections, so keep a sharp eye on the directional signs.

The Shuttle (tel. 902/566-3243) provides daily service between Charlottetown and several points in Cavendish from June through September. The rate is C$18 (US$15) round-trip, C$10 (US$8) one-way.

Visitor Information

The snazzy, well-stocked little Cavendish Visitor Information Centre (tel. 902/963-7830) is open daily from 8am to 9pm mid-June to the middle of October (only until 4:30pm in shoulder seasons) and is located just north of the intersection of Route 13 and Route 6.
