Anne's Land
The name says it all. This region, and indeed the entire Island, was changed forever by Anne of Green GablesTM, the red-haired orphan created by Island author Lucy Maud Montgomery. While aspects of Anne can be found throughout the Island, nowhere is she more present than in this region that bears her name. Many of Montgomery’s famous novels are set here. But beyond Anne, this region still has plenty more to offer group tours. Amusement parks, craft shopping and attractions abound; as do pristine beaches and the Island's only National Park.
