Hello Thomas,

Thank you for your question to Ask an Islander.

Prince Edward Island has three scenic coastal drives: North Cape Coastal Drive, Central Coastal Drive and Points East Coastal Drive. The driving route for touring the North Shore is known as the Green Gables Shore of the Central Coastal Drive.

It is primarily Route 6 except it becomes Route 20 & 104 from New London to Kensington when travelling west from Charlottetown to Summerside. Along this drive, you will see the PEI National Park, Green Gables Heritage Place, many other attractions and sites.

Enjoy the beautiful North Shore of PEI!

Regards,

Kevin Barbour
