Creator's Key Takeaways

Overall, we had an enjoyable time strolling the streets of Halifax.

We did not pay to go inside the fort, but the perimeter gives you a clear view of the town clock and harbor.

I love that. We also passed the salty yard which has food kiosk and an outdoor beer garden.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Explore the downtown area and boardwalk on foot instead of booking excursions.
โœ“Visit the Halifax Seaport Farmers Market on weekends when it's open.
โœ“Walk the Harbor Walk for scenic views and public seating.
