Frequently Asked Questions

At piers 20 and 22, immediately next to Pier 21, the former immigration arrival hall. The call therefore begins in the middle of the city's maritime history.
Yes. A boardwalk of about 4 km runs along the harbour from the terminals to the heart of the city, with the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic halfway along. Only the Citadel involves a fairly steep 15 to 20 minute climb.
Pier 21, the waterfront boardwalk, the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic and the Citadel fill the half day without leaving the centre. Peggy's Cove, about 45 km away, takes a half day on its own.
The Canadian Museum of Immigration, housed in the building where a million newcomers first set foot in Canada between 1928 and 1971. Personal accounts, photographs, period suitcases and sound archives tell the story of the Atlantic crossings.
The city helped the survivors and recovered the victims of the Titanic, many of whom rest at Fairview Lawn Cemetery. The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic devotes a section to the episode.
A blast that flattened entire districts of the city, one of the largest non-nuclear detonations in history. The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic traces how it unfolded and what followed.
Star-shaped fortifications atop the hill above the harbour. Interpreters in 78th Highlanders uniform bring the Victorian garrison to life, and the noon gun still marks the Halifax day.
On a clear day, yes: the lighthouse on wave-polished granite and the fishing hamlet make one of the best-known images of Atlantic Canada. Allow half a day including the drive. In fog, the city is more than enough on its own.
Lobster, scallops and chowder appear on most boards along the waterfront and Argyle Street. The Seaport Farmers' Market, next to the terminal, gathers producers and artisans from across the province right off the ship.
May to October, peaking in September and October for the autumn colours. The Public Gardens, just past the Citadel, are especially fine in summer with their Victorian beds and bandstand.
