Victoria

Tucked away on the south shore of Prince Edward Island, Victoria-by-the-Sea, as locals call it, is a charming fishing village that was once a prosperous seaport. Visitors can stay in a former sea-captain’s house, catch local theater in the historic Victoria Playhouse, and eat a lobster roll at the renowned Landmark Café. Tree-lined streets and old-time lobster fisherman make the village seem a little out of time, and the people who live here want it that way. The Victoria Seaport Museum, which is in Palmer’s Range Light, is a great place to learn about local history.
