Paddling near Stratford, Prince Edward Island


Stratford sits on the eastern shore of Charlottetown Harbour, with the Hillsborough River immediately at hand and a network of tidal rivers and estuaries spreading across Queens and Kings counties. PEI's calm, warm-water rivers suit beginners and families, while open-water crossings — such as the paddle from Stratford Beach out to Governors Island — draw more experienced kayakers looking for a genuine challenge.
