Welcome to Prince Edward County!

Prince Edward County—the 1,048 sq km (404.8 sq mi) area situated between Toronto and Ottawa—features an unconventional royal spirit that appeals to a variety of visitors. The topography of the land is diverse, filled with Precambrian rock, high limestone cliffs, marshes and thick forests of white pine and oak. The presence of thriving orchards, expansive provincial parks, winding country roads and 13 quaint towns and villages does nothing but add to the ambiance of this natural wonderland. Lake Ontario is found bending and curving around the southern shore of the county, providing over 800 km (500 mi) of coastline and boatloads of water activities. The fresh-water sand dunes of Sandbanks Provincial Park are renowned international, and cajole even the most proper person to run down them bursting with giggles. Prince Edward County—s distinct rural atmosphere is entwined with eclectic tones, for one can buy fresh produce at a farmers market, rummage through treasures at an antique shop, watch a grand production at the Regent Theatre or purchase a unique item at one of many artists— studios.
