Welcome to Murray Harbour.
Located in the southeastern corner of Prince Edward Island, Murray Harbour is a unique little place that offers the best of Island scenery, culture, and hospitality.
Steeped in a rich maritime history, our fishing village offers genuine small-town charm and a pace of life that allows us to enjoy everything our community has to offer. We put a high value on rural living and work hard to preserve our traditions and way of life.
But don’t be fooled by our quiet ways—Murray Harbour is a hive of activity! Whether you live here year-round, come ‘home’ for the summer, or are just visiting the area, this special place has something for everyone.
The Community Centre has returned to normal activities and hours. Thank you for your patience.
