We are arriving in PEI aboard a cruise ship in October. Are there any tour companies giving tours of the lighthouses around the Island?
Good afternoon from Prince Edward Island,
Thank you for your inquiry to Ask an Islander. We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of the fall cruise ship season in Charlottetown.
On Prince Edward Island, there are at least three community museum lighthouses that will be open when you arrive the first week of October and many others provide spectacular views at any time. Here is a list of possible tour companies and guides to contact to request a custom tour during your stay:
- Prince Edward Tours: Email [email protected]
- Spud Island Tours
- Tours by Locals - Charlottetown
- Tour guide D. Cudmore : Email [email protected]
In the meantime, you may enjoy reading about the history of PEI lighthouses. On your sail into the Charlottetown Harbour, watch for the Blockhouse Point Lighthouse (pictured below) and the range lights. You may see others as well so I've included a link to the map of lighthouses and range lights of Prince Edward Island for your reference.
Enjoy your time on Prince Edward Island and safe sailing.
Regards,
Verna Lynne
