Take a flight from Toronto to Charlottetown for a memorable vacation
When you board a flight from Toronto to Charlottetown from Toronto Pearson International Airport or Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport, you'll arrive in a charming seaside city. Filled with rich culture and history, a trip to Charlottetown will be one you won't forget.
Slip on comfortable shoes after landing from your Toronto to Charlottetown flight. The city's downtown is highly walkable and full of interesting sights like heritage buildings, Victorian-era homes and beautifully manicured greenspaces. If you want to go on a longer journey on foot, consider The Island Walk. It's a 700-km walk that circumnavigates Prince Edward Island – see breathtaking sights and interesting pit stops along the way!
Since Charlottetown is surrounded by the sea, it's an amazing destination for water-based activities. Go on a sailing tour for an adventure out on the water and see rocky sandstone cliffs, beaches and wildlife. There are also many deep sea fishing tours available for booking, if you feel like catching your own dinner!

Prince Edward Island National Park
Breathtaking landscapes are never too far away once you've landed from your Toronto to Charlottetown PEI flight from Pearson or Billy Bishop. Prince Edward Island National Park is only 25 minutes away from downtown Charlottetown, a short drive for fantastic views. Once you arrive you'll see sandstone cliffs, sand dunes, salt marshes, beaches and much more at this massive park.
The park has three sections: Cavendish, Brackley-Dalvay and Greenwich. The Cavendish and Brackley-Dalvay areas feature campgrounds, beaches and trails for hiking and cycling. You'll also find beaches, trails, wetlands and sand dunes in the Greenwich area of the park.
If you're a fan of Anne of Green Gables, then you'll want to visit Green Gables Heritage Place located in the park. The 19th-century farmstead was featured in L.M. Montgomery's novel – walk the grounds and tour around the Green Gables house. Don't forget to check out the visitor centre to learn more about Montgomery and her life.
Camping season in the park runs from June to September, if you'd like to stay overnight. The park has two campgrounds and a few camping options including tents and RV sites and bunkies. Fall asleep to the sound of the waves and be close to scenic beaches and trails. Reservations can be made online.
Experience the island after your flight from Toronto to Charlottetown
North Cape Coastal Drive
Go on the scenic North Cape Coastal Drive after your flight from Toronto to Charlottetown from Pearson or Billy Bishop. The 350-km drive winds along the west coast of the island and offers spectacular scenery along the way – from rolling hills, red cliffs to beautiful beaches, it'll be a feast for your eyes! It's best to do the North Cape Coastal Drive if your Toronto to Charlottetown trip is a few days long. The route starts at Summerside and leads to the North Cape, and then back to Summerside along the other side of the island.
The first stop on your road trip should be at the Acadian Museum. Here, you'll learn about the Island Acadiens' 300-year presence on Prince Edward Island. Check out The Bottle Houses afterwards, one of the island's most unique attractions. See a six-gabled house, tavern and chapel constructed from thousands of bottles. Édouard Arsenault started building his first bottle house in 1980 and finished the third structure in 1984 – he used over 25,000 bottles to complete the three structures!
Cedar Dunes Provincial Park is where you want to go for sunshine and sea breeze. It's a picturesque spot for a refreshing dip in the ocean or a long walk along the beach – be sure to snap some pictures in front of the West Point Lighthouse, the tallest lighthouse in PEI.
