“Blue mussel Café is one of the best reviewed restaurants in PEI. And it is truly TRULY delicious! With a beautiful view and a nice breeze. Definitely a must-eat!” The price category is $$$ nowadays. You can sign up for the waitlist through ‘yelp.’ Another option is to be put on by the door, but the wait might be quite long.

Sightseeing
I love making a drive over this road! It is just awesome to see trout river. I recommend adding this in your sight seeing route and don't skip 'Warburton Rd' on your way back for a typical PEI dirt rd. It is known as a historic pei rd. If you don't like small roads this might not be suited. But I love this road! :)”
Somewhere in the middle of trout river road there is a bridge which is ideal for some pretty pictures. You can actually cross it.

Situated on Prince Edward Island’s South Shore, we have been welcoming visitors to our delightful village since the Harland Ferry docked here regularly in the early 1900’s. Over a century later, Victoria-by-the-Sea still beckons with seaside charm and first class shops and events, dining and accommodation. Not only did the Trans-Canada Highway bypass Victoria, so did the shopping centres and tourist amusement parks. That – along with its independent-minded citizens – is what makes Victoria the enchanting, picture postcard place it is today.
