Spring and fall are some of the best times to explore PEI! Quieter roads, crisp air, and that slower pace that makes you want to take your time. It’s the season for scenic drives, cozy meals, and last-minute detours that turn into your favourite part of the day. But off-season travel can also come with one big question: what’s actually open?

 

This page is here to make things easier. You’ll find a curated guide to local restaurants, cafés, shops, attractions, and essential services that stay open beyond the summer rush so you can plan your trip with confidence, spend less time searching, and focus on the fun part: getting out and exploring!

The map below highlights businesses that are open beyond peak season across the Central Coastal Drive.

 

This page is part of a pilot project designed to help with spring and fall trip planning, and we’re doing our best to keep it as up-to-date as possible during the shoulder seasons. Hours can sometimes change, so we still recommend checking directly with businesses before heading out.

And if you’re visiting during the shoulder season, a little extra patience and kindness goes a long way for the businesses and staff working hard to welcome visitors during a quieter time of year!
