Delicious take-out restaurant which sits on the wharf at Cove Head beach. Please note: Wait line can be long therefore, I wouldn't recommend going when you're very hungry. I would recommend going outside peak dinner hours.

My favourite beaches
Branders Pond is a beautiful private beach off the North Shore of Prince Edward Island. It shares the same coast as some of PEI's most famous beaches (Thunder Cove, Cavendish, Brackley) but it less touristy and busy.

Beautiful Coastal Drive
I recommend taking the coastal drive from Cavendish to North Rustico and stop along the cliffs. The drive to French River from the Airbnb is also stunning.
