List of lakes of Prince Edward Island

Last updated

This is a list of lakes and other bodies of waters in Prince Edward Island , Canada.

Contents

Lakes in Prince Edward Island are complicated, and what is considered a lake and what is not can vary with little relation to size or depth. In many cases the terms pond and barachois are both used interchangeably with lake, for example St. Peters Lake is also known as Stukeley Pond. [1] Some ponds or barachois have their sandbars flooded and become coves, like Ramsays Pond, which retains its name but is now saltwater.

While the definition for lake varies in size, for this article, the minimum size for a lake will be 20 acres, the criteria set by RAMSAR. [2]
