Sand and gravel, petroleum products and agricultural fertiliser, alongside a busy cruise season, define the cargo profile of Charlottetown, the principal common-user marine terminal on Prince Edward Island. Its five berths range from about 90 to 217 m in length, with depths between 6 and 16 m. Contrary to older descriptions, the port has no ship-to-shore container cranes or automated equipment, and no scheduled container line service operates here. Mainland access is by road only, including the Confederation Bridge to New Brunswick; there is no island rail link. Customs is handled by the Canada Border Services Agency. For containerised shipments, Halifax (Nova Scotia) is the nearest suitable port, while Saint John (New Brunswick) serves general and bulk cargo.
