Be charmed by Cavendish
There are two sides to Cavendish. There's the one of the literary pages, where grass-colored country farmsteads and rattling carriages herald the home of Anne of Green Gables. And then there's the natural one, where the powdery sands of Cavendish Beach feather into grass-topped dunes over the Gulf of St Lawrence. Cozying up in Cavendish vacation rentals can mean experiencing both of those at the same time, with mornings spent picnicking beneath the erstwhile Victorian home of Lucy Maud Montgomery, and afternoons of deep-sea fishing in the whale-spotted Atlantic.
Fun on the farm and a scoop (or three!) of ice cream
It’s no surprise that Green Gables rules here. You can visit LM Montgomery’s childhood home, Green Gables House, as well as Heritage Place farmhouse and gardens, the Anne of Green Gables Museum, and Avonlea Village – a replica of the fictional 19th century hometown of the heroine Anne Shirley. Once you’ve had your literary fix, take a stroll along Cavendish Boardwalk and enjoy an ice cream from famous local brand COWS, while children will love the family-friendly theme parks Shining Waters and Sandspit. Many attractions are open in the summer months only, so check before you book your Cavendish vacation rental.
The curiosities of Cavendish
A kaleidoscope of pursuits awaits on the doorstep of your Cavendish vacation rentals. Hop out onto the clifftop trails to feel the spray of the Atlantic Ocean meeting the rugged coast of Prince Edward Island. Go to the countryside, for literary-themed tours and heritage journeys through the cottages and woods. Or, hit the swells on a marine safari, to spot hulking humpback whales, galumphing porpoises, seals, elegant dolphin pods, minke whales, and more.
Catching the warmth in Cavendish
Cavendish _ like the rest of Prince Edward Island _ booms with visitors during the summer season. Cavendish vacation rentals on the beach become gateways to sparkling sands then, while those around the harbors of PEI turn into top bases for launching those deep-sea fishing expeditions into the St Lawrence Gulf. The months between May and August are also the busiest in the town, imbuing the lobster shacks and eateries with a lively energy. For more seclusion, the fall in September is a good alternative.
Explore the Canadian coast in Cavendish
Cavendish crops out of the north shores of Prince Edward Island. The coastline there is a patchwork of blustery sea dunes, where swaying grasses fade into yellow-hued sands. You can walk the boardwalks and hike the mud-colored tops of the Cavendish Cliffs, making use of designated pathways like the Cavendish Dunelands Trail through the coastal wilds. Trips out into the Gulf of St Lawrence are a must if you want to encounter the region's rich marine life _ keep your eyes peeled for whales, dolphin pods, seals, porpoises, and more.
