Cruisin’ Central Coastal: North Rustico

North Rustico is arguably one of the most known towns on our island for their scenic views, little shops, a great atmosphere, and overall charm! Here is a perfect itinerary to get the most out of your time in this little cozy town!

 

Start your day with an authentic Island experience! Learn the art of loom making and wool processing at Knit Pickers PEI, or head out on a kayaking adventure with Outside Expeditions.

Afterward, grab a perfect espresso or matcha at Frothy Coffee. Then get ready to cast off with a deep sea excursion from Joey’s Deep Sea Fishing or Aiden’s Deep Sea Fishing—two beloved local operators with decades of experience.

For lunch, enjoy fresh seafood and harbour views at the Blue Mussel Café. Then dive into local history at the Farmers Bank of Rustico and Karen Gallant Art Gallery or shop handcrafted wool pieces at Rustico Bay Wool Sweater Company.

Stop by Crickers Creamery for a sweet treat before checking out the surfboards and local goods at the Rustico Surf Club. Interested in wellness? Look up a yoga session with Dandelion Yoga with Paula, offering group classes around town.

Enjoy a traditional lobster supper at Fisherman’s Wharf Lobster Suppers, then wrap up your evening with a show at the Watermark Theatre and a sunset stroll along North Rustico Beach.

Stay the night at the elegant Barachois Inn, family-friendly Gulf View Cottages, or cozy The Graham Inn, which features an indoor pool and thoughtful Island hospitality.
