After An Awesome 5 Weeks On PEI Onto Nova Scotia

On The Ferry Leaving PEI



Staying Here For A Few Weeks



A Drive Along The Coast To Pugwash


Nestled along the shores of the Northumberland Strait, Pugwash is located about 30 minutes or less from five provincial parks with beach access.

Site of the first discussions about nuclear disarmament, this coastal community is home to Thinkers' Lodge, a National Historic Site where you can learn more about how this village first gained international recognition for peace in 1957.




Pugwash Is Full Of These Old House


So Much History





A rustic house where intellectuals and investors tried to put an end to Cold War nuclear armament







A not-to-be-missed seaside village with a bustling Main Street, you'll find a craft brewery, farmers' market, handmade chocolates, fresh baked goodies, chowder, bike rentals and restored rail cars that are now an inn, all within a one-kilometre stretch.

A 52 km Ride

 Rode from Murray Harbour to Wood Island on the Confederation Trail


The Confederation Trail runs tip-to-tip across Prince Edward Island and is best explored on foot or bicycle. Built on the decommissioned railway line, the main trail is 273 kilometres from west to east - Tignish to Elmira. Branch trails run through small towns and communities including the heart of Charlottetown. The gradients along this rolled stone dust trail never exceed two per cent making it suitable for all fitness levels.
