Avoid the tricky task of finding parking downtown and explore on foot. Immerse yourself in Halifax's rich history at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, contemplate the immigration experience at Pier 21 and survey the city from the 18th-century Citadel National Historic Site. Ocean views and great hiking are draws at Point Pleasant Park and on McNab's Island. Reflect on your day over dinner or drinks in Historic Properties. « less
