Downtown Charlottetown Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Sunset over the Charlottetown harbor in the summer
When I visited Charlottetown, it wasn't anything what I expected. PEI was so much more beautiful than I could have imagined it would be and Charlottetown was no exception. Seen in this photo is a floating dock hub of places to eat. Depending on the tide determines where you are either at street level, or well below. I ate at The Chip Shack but unfortunately was a bit of a disappointment.
There was lot's to see in downtown Charlottetown. In August when I was there you could find music in the park nightly, shopping at lot's of little vendors, and a beautiful park to bike, run, and or relax. Cow's Ice Cream is really big here so if you can handle the line ups it's worth it.
right at the boardwalk
It was just so beautiful

THE Most comfortable bed I have ever slept on in a hotel!! We were in a superior double room, ground floor, that was accessed from outside. The room was spacious and clean.
