Where to relax
With its salty ocean air, serene coasts, and beautiful parks and gardens, Halifax is a perfect destination to get away, unwind, and focus on wellness. If your guests need to reset after a long day of meetings, there’s no better place to get away from it all.
Where to learn
We know our history, but we’re always looking to the future. We’ve got tons of historic sites like the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site, the Halifax Public Gardens, George’s Island National Historic Site, the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21; and yet we’re right in the middle of Atlantic Canada’s most modern city with strengths in Ocean Technology, Life Sciences, IT, Gaming, and Media.
Where to eat
You can’t get much fresher than seafood straight off the boat. Our local produce comes from the Annapolis Valley, just one hour away, and we love to raise a glass and cheers our craft beverage industry (everything from wine, beer, cider, and spirits). Come taste the flavours of Nova Scotia.
Where to stay
Cozy up at one of our city’s incredible hotels. From the historic, to the modern and everything in between, you’ll find accommodations fit for royalty (and some where royalty have actually stayed!)
Where to wander
Nature is part of what makes Halifax the amazing city that it is. The waterfront is only steps away from our downtown core, the colourful Public Gardens are just around the corner, walking trails are within 15 minutes, and just five minutes further you can find our sandy beaches.
