What is a good place for lobster dinners? Where can I see seals? Where is the best hiking?

Hello Brian,

Thank you for your questions to Ask an Islander.

There are several great places for lobster dinners. Traditional lobster suppers such as Fisherman's Wharf in North Rustico, New Glasgow lobster Supper in New Glasgow and the Cardigan Lobster Supper in Cardigan are popular. 

Many restaurants serve a lobster dinner. I love the Merchantman and Clam Diggers in Cardigan. Reservations are highly recommended.

You can see seals at low tide on the rock in Lower Montague, Wightman's Point. Murray River along the river banks, Charlottetown Harbour. There are also seal tours.

We have lots of great hiking trails. Bonshaw Hills is very popular. Along a river, many paths it has lots of rabbits, birds and small wildlife.
