Halifax

Travel to Halifax

Salty sea breezes, live music and lobster rolls are just part of the vibrant East Coast culture found in Nova Scotia’s capital. Explore deep Maritime roots alongside local buskers and artisans on the lively Halifax waterfront by day, then dive into an innovative culinary scene and lively downtown by night. Surrounded by nature as diverse as its people, Halifax is home to seascapes, skylines, surf swells and endless opportunities for adventure. Explore an 18th century citadel, or the archipelago of 100 Wild Islands before sampling wines from the Annapolis Valley. Wherever you are in Halifax, an upbeat and welcoming atmosphere will find you as you take in the modern charm, seaside vibe and the natural landmarks.
