The Port of Charlottetown is located on Prince Edward Island, Canada’s smallest province. It was in this city that in 1864, the Canadian Fathers of Confederation met to begin the discussions that led to the founding of Canada in 1867. In addition to admiring the picturesque landscapes of the island and the Victorian architecture of its buildings, you can immerse yourself in the world of Anne of Green Gables, a well-known literary work.
