What is the driving distance from Port Hawkesbury NS to Charlottetown PEI?

Answer 1

There are two ways to reach Prince Edward Island: via either the CARIBOU-WOOD ISLAND FERRY or the CONFEDERATION BRIDGE.

By taking the Ferry, it is a shorter distance (225 km), but it may actually take longer if there are long lines for a ferry. In any case, this is the route:

1. Take (TRANS-Canada) HIGHWAY 104 - WEST (towards ANTIGONISH), across the CANSO CAUSEWAY to Georges Island, where you will continue on the highway to (TRANS-CANADA) HIGHWAY 106 - NORTH to the PEI FERRY off EXIT 22.
2. Take (TRANS-CANADA) HIGHWAY 106 to the FERRY to WOOD ISLANDS, PEI. The ferry is operated by NFL (Northumberland Ferries Ltd.) For more information, see the related link below.
3. Once you are on PEI, continue on (TRANS-CANADA) ROUTE 1 - WEST to Charlottetown.

Or, you can take the CONFEDERATION BRIDGE, it is 400 km taking this route:

1. Take (TRANS-CANADA) HIGHWAY 104 - WEST (towards ANTIGONISH), across the CANSO CAUSEWAY to Georges Island, where you will continue on the highway to NEW BRUNSWICK, where the TRANS-CANADA HIGHWAY continues as ROUTE 2.
2. Continue on (TRANS-CANADA) ROUTE 2 - WEST to (TRANS-CANADA) ROUTE 16 to P.E.I. off EXIT 518B.
3. Take (TRANS-CANADA) ROUTE 16 to the CONFEDERATION BRIDGE (toll), which you will use to cross into P.E.I.
4. Once you are on P.E.I., continue on (TRANS-CANADA) ROUTE 1 - EAST to Charlottetown.
