Halifax Waterfront Boardwalk, Halifax

We spent several days over Easter weekend enjoying the businesses and the stroll along the waterway. Small play area for the kids access to many restaurants and cafes. I am sure that my thousands of steps did not take me past all there was to see. We were able to walk down from our hotel which was a bonus but I saw several places that you could park. Really a great place to hang out and have fun.

Lovely, serene and historic. A place to relax, a place to explore, a place to enjoy. Eat, drink and be merry! Wear comfy shoes! If you climb the hill to the top take it nice and easy! Surprisingly, going downhill that steep was a challenge too and I was wishing I brought open toe sports sandals too. The whole place is a delight. Worth the visit!

Walking the waterfront is my favourite thing to do in Halifax. The boardwalk is incredibly accessible and full of history, beautiful views and great food. Listening to local buskers and people watching is part of the journey. The colourful Adirondack chairs Harbourside are a great place to take in a drink or ice cream and enjoy the afternoon. Highly recommend.

Stopped here on our last day in Nova Scotia. It was very nice and built out. Lots of beautiful views, benches, and even hammocks. I was a little disappointed with how many places were closed on a Sunday evening in October, but maybe I was just too late in the season. I recommend hoping in a ferry ride to get a nice tour of the area for cheap. There were a number of people that seemed to be very drunk walking around which was strange. Other than that, a very nice experience.

I've been to the Halifax Waterfront several times during my visit this time. I enjoy the bustle of energy, the shops, people milling about, the bikers that hang out in front of the ferry terminal. Took one of the boat cruises, ate some lunch, bought a sweatshirt, bought a snow cone and some maple butter. It was lovely when the sunshine was out.
