Plan the Free Entry, Paid Exit Toll Loop

When visiting by car, you only pay a toll when leaving Prince Edward Island. Entering the island via the 12.9-kilometer Confederation Bridge from New Brunswick or by the Northumberland Ferry from Caribou, Nova Scotia is completely free of charge upon arrival.

To maximize scenic variety and optimize your budget, enter using the dramatic architectural marvel of the Confederation Bridge and depart via the leisurely 75-minute Northumberland Ferry (or vice versa). Keep in mind that ferry fares are higher than the bridge toll, but departing via ferry saves substantial driving time if you are continuing your journey toward Cape Breton or eastern Nova Scotia.
