Located on the East Coast of Canada, PEI is cradled in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, separated to the south from its neighbouring provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia by the waters of the Northumberland Strait. From New Brunswick, you can travel to the Island via the Confederation Bridge, while Nova Scotia offers a seasonal ferry service that typically runs from May through December. You can also fly into PEI from several major Canadian and US cities, arriving at the Charlottetown airport.

If you drive to PEI via the Confederation Bridge, you’ll arrive in Borden-Carleton, located along the southwestern area of Central Coastal. Arriving by plane, you’ll land on the eastern side of the Central Coastal region and just minutes from Charlottetown. And if you choose to take the ferry, you’ll arrive at Wood Islands, on the southeastern part of the Island. From here, it’s approximately a 45 minute drive to Charlottetown and the easternmost part of the Central Coastal region.
