Good to know before you go
The currency is the Canadian dollar and English is the main language. The compact town centre is a delight to explore on foot, but public transit is limited. A rental car is the easiest way to reach the island's beaches, lighthouses, and countryside, including Cavendish, though agencies often add a young-driver surcharge under 25, so organized day tours or local taxis are good car-free options. Traffic is light and parking is easy and inexpensive. The island is safe and genuinely welcoming.
