Visitor Information
Prince Edward Island Prince Edward Island has proven to be a great place for a marathon. It's a great place, period. A stunning little island cradled in the waves of the Gulf of St. Lawrence that combines historic charm with a modern sensibility. So if you're planning to participate, you're likely to enjoy your pre and post-marathon time as much as the event itself. And if you're traveling with friends or family who aren't runners, not to worry. There is plenty for them to enjoy while you're occupied with the marathon.
The Government of Prince Edward Island maintains a web site to assist visitors who plan to visit the Island. Tourism PEI is a great resource for anyone who is coming "from away" for the BMO Nesbitt Burns Prince Edward Island Marathon. City of Charlottetown Charlottetown, the capital of Prince Edward Island is Canada's Birthplace. It was here that the founding fathers gathered for the Charlottetown Conference.
