Summerside

Summerside often plays little sibling to the more popular Charlottetown, but, as Prince Edward Island’s second largest city, offers a picturesque waterfront, many museums for a town its size, and a burgeoning cultural scene. It also acts a gateway to the western side of the province and Malpeque Bay. Cultural highlights include a summer concert series of Celtic music and dance, and the Eptek Art & Culture Centre, which showcases local history and artisans. An unusual museum dedicated to the history of fox breeding is located inside the Holman Homestead.
