Prince Edward Island might be small, but we sure know how to raise a glass. Scattered across red-dirt roads and tucked into tiny villages, our craft breweries, cozy wineries, and off-the-map distilleries are full of flavour, and not just the kind you sip. These places are about people, stories, and that easygoing Island way of doing things.
Back when taverns were few and far between, Islanders made their own spirits (sometimes quietly, in the woods), and that DIY spirit still runs deep. Today, it shows up in citrusy pale ales, small-batch ciders, bold reds, and even legal moonshine that’d make your granddad proud. You’ll find farm stands with burgers and beer gardens with yard games, breezy patios with live music, and cellar doors that welcome you like family.
This tour winds through the Points East Coastal Drive region and highlights 6 of our favourite stops to sip and savour, and 4 other interesting stops along the way. From riverside breweries to rolling vineyards, it’s your perfect excuse to slow down, take in the view, and enjoy the Island—one pour at a time. Designate a driver, pack some snacks, and don’t be shy with your questions. Every stop has a story, and we’ve got a good feeling you’ll want to hear them all.
