Destination guide
Halifax: Atlantic Canada's harbour city and lobster capital
Halifax is a working port with a boardwalk, a hilltop citadel and the best seafood on the Atlantic coast. It is also the gateway to Nova Scotia: Peggy's Cove is 45 minutes away and the Cabot Trail a day's drive up-island.
Best time to visit: June to September for warm weather and full restaurant hours; lobster season and the Halifax Busker Festival fall in this window. Late September and early October bring fall colour on Cape Breton with far fewer visitors. Winter is cold, grey and cheap.
