Around 12 to 15 cargo vessels a season, four berths able to take ships up to roughly 225 metres, and a recently rebuilt west berth backed by a CAD 4.5 million upgrade – those are the working numbers at Summerside. On the Gulf of Saint Lawrence shore of Prince Edward Island, this is a seasonal bulk and break-bulk port, not a container terminal, handling fertilizer, aggregates such as gravel, limestone and sand, and occasional project loads like wind-turbine blades. A heated warehouse of about 5,000 m² supports palletised goods. Road links run inland, with the Confederation Bridge to the mainland some 25 kilometres away. For containers or year-round liner cargo, shippers serving PEI generally route via Charlottetown or mainland Halifax.
