10 Best Boat Tours in Halifax (Ultimate Guide)

Table of Contents

Are you looking into boat tours in Halifax, Nova Scotia, but need help finding the best one?

I can help!

Back when I lived in Halifax as a university student, one of my favorite things was watching the boats go by in the harbor. Then, when family or friends visited, I would often take them on one of the many boat cruises in Halifax. 

Most of these are only 1-2 hours and are a surprisingly affordable way to spend an afternoon! You can learn more about the history of Halifax and see the harbor from a unique perspective. 

So, I’ll share my ‘insider’s list’ of the top boat tours Halifax offers. By the end, you’ll be able to know precisely which one is right for you! 

My Top 3 Picks for Tours

#1 TOP PICK

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Halifax Harbour Hopper Tour ✔️ Water and land tour ✔️ Inexpensive

Adventure Yacht Sailing ✔️ Sailing tour ✔️ Chill vibe, information optional

Sunset Wine and Cheese Yacht Sailing ✔️ Nibbles included ✔️ Sunset views

1. Halifax Harbour Hopper Tour

⭐5/5 (680+ Reviews)

The Harbour Hopper Tour is one of the most unique boat tours in Halifax because it uses an amphibious Vietnam War vehicle that can travel both on land and in water! 

I actually lived along the route so I always heard it. When my mom came to visit it was our first stop so I could learn what else they said on the route.

You’ll visit several important sites, including St. Paul’s Cathedral and Citadel Hill.

The guide narrates the entire journey, telling you what to look for and interesting facts about each landmark! 

Once the land portion of the tour is complete, you’ll head down to the harbor, where the captain will launch the vehicle directly into the water. Then, you’ll enjoy a short boat tour of Halifax Harbour before returning to land, where the tour concludes. 

This tour is great for families with children. (Even grown adults who are big kids at heart will find this amphibious tour a lot of fun.

As one of the most popular tours in Halifax, there are multiple departure timeslots each day.

“Our Captain Kirk and First Mate Matt were absolutely amazing! The trip was very informative and told a lot of history we did not know. We highly recommend this tour.” – Jennifer C.

2. Adventure Yacht Sailing in the Halifax Harbour

⭐5/5 (65+ Reviews)

Prefer sailing on a yacht? This Halifax luxury yacht tour is the only wind-powered sailing tour in Halifax. 

The coolest part is that you can even participate in the sailing process. The crew will guide you on how to lend a hand on board the ship with the sails and other tasks.

But there’s no obligation. If you just want to chill, you can hang out at the bow of the ship and simply take in the sights as they pass. 

You can also grab a glass of complimentary wine or beer from the bar on board and enjoy a luxurious skyline view of the Halifax Harbor!

⭐5/5 (75+ Reviews)

Imagine sipping fancy wine and sailing through the harbor during golden hour. Not only is it a unique way to spend the evening, but it is also one of the best date night ideas in Halifax! 

Once you board the yacht, your captain will sail down the narrows of the Northwest Arm during sunset and share some interesting insights about the harbor along the way. You’ll also get to sample four different types of local wine, cheese, and other charcuterie items. 

The best part is that, because it’s a small group boat tour, you won’t have to share the moment with crowds of other tourists. The maximum number of people on each yacht tour is 12. 

If you’re a wine enthusiast or a couple traveling to Halifax, this is a great way to spend an evening on the water! 

Note: Guests must be 19 years of age to take this tour.

The wine selection was extraordinary, the navigation in the ocean made me want to be a sailor, the crew was gentle and knowledgeable. The hours spent flew by and the scenery with wine and cheese couldn’t be better. Thank you for making our Halifax visit so joyful.” – Olga S. 

• Tour Length – 2 hours 30 minutes 

4. Tall Ship Silva Sailing Cruise

⭐5/5 (150+ Reviews)

The tall ship Silva is an imposing 130-foot (40m) schooner, but it looks even more impressive when you’re a passenger on board.

On this boat tour, you’ll enjoy sailing on one of the most beautiful boats in the harbor and learn all about the rice maritime history of Halifax. The tour sails near many local points of interest, including Harbour Bridge, Fort George, McNab’s Island, and Point Pleasant Park. 

Towards the end of the tour, there is an optional part where you can join the crew manning the sails, tying knots, or even taking a turn at the helm. This is particularly fun for families with young children! 

The tour does have a lot of people, but since the ship is so large, it rarely feels overcrowded. There’s plenty of room to find a spot and enjoy the boat tour!  

“The young tour guide was great. The weather was beautiful. The wind and seas were calm. An exciting way to spend a couple of hours viewing the Halifax Harbour.” – Alvin B.

• Group Size – 72 people max

5. Private Luxury Catamaran Sail from Downtown Halifax

This catamaran is the newest boat in J Farwell Sailing Tour’s huge fleet.

It’s a luxurious, comfortable boat with catamaran nets suspended over the water, comfortable indoor seating, and lots of space to lounge. Guests can even sit at the stern and watch the captain navigate the boat!

⭐5/5 (15+ Reviews)

If you want a relaxing cruise showing you the Halifax skyline in a brand new light, this boat tour is for you! 

This Moonlight Yacht Tour set sail late in the evening to take full advantage of the dark sky to view the glowing moon and stars, plus Halifax’s dazzling skyline. 

It’s one of the few moonlight boat cruises in Halifax, creating a unique experience you can share with your friends or family. 

The boat tour includes a calm atmosphere, soft music, and alcoholic beverages available for purchase on board. There’s also plenty of room on board because it’s a small group tour (12 people max.)

“A very enjoyable evening! Would highly recommend! Halifax at moonlight is delightful! We met some very interesting people. And our tour guides were very informative.” – Elizabeth B. 

7. Private Sunset Luxury Catamaran Sail in Halifax

⭐5/5 (5+ Reviews)

If you’re looking for a luxury private boat tour, this catamaran could be the perfect option for you and your friends. 

After booking the tour, the luxurious catamaran is yours for the duration of the cruise. Allow your captain to sail you through the golden light as you make your way through the northwest arm of Halifax to view the sunset.

Go ahead and relax with a view of the Halifax skyline. There’s plenty of space to sit, but the crowd favorite is the classic catamaran nets at the rear!

• Tour Length – 2 hours

8. Morning Family Sailing Experience in Halifax

⭐5/5 (25+ Reviews)

This boat tour in Halifax caters to families traveling to Halifax and want to go sailing together. It starts first thing in the morning (around 10 AM) and uses a 45’ wind-powered vessel!

The kids will learn so much from the crew on board, including gybing, tacking, setting the course, and turning the winches. The team works hard to make it a quality educational opportunity for everyone on board! 

The captain will even provide each child with an Official Crew Member Certificate!

But don’t worry, this is an excellent tour for big kids, too (ahem, adults)!

There’s plenty of space to spread out and feel like you have your own space, even when a couple of families are on board, and reviews praise the team for giving personal care to each passenger.

If your kids love spending time on a boat, another memorable experience for families in Halifax is going whale watching!

“Kind, knowledgeable and fun staff. Clean, well maintained boat. Children friendly! All ages fun! I would recommend to anyone.” – Laurie S.

Canada Travel Planning Guide

🚑  Should I buy Canada travel insurance?

100% YES!  — Canada has “free” healthcare but it’s only for citizens! Foreigners visiting need travel insurance in case anything happens on their visit. I recommend World Nomads – starting at just $5 a day!

💧 Can you drink the water in Canada?

Yes  — In all major cities in Canada, you can drink the tap water. There are very few, rural areas that you can’t. However, you should never drink river or lake water anywhere in the country! I recommend a Brita Water Bottle for long hikes and backcountry camping to stay safe and hydrated.

🚙💨  Is it safe to rent a car in Canada?

Yes  — Renting a car is a necessity in most of Canada! If you want to go on road trips or adventures outside of the major cities, you’ll need to rent a car. ( Read more )

📲  Will my phone work in Canada?

Maybe  — Some American companies work in Canada, but many will not. If your phone doesn’t work in Canada, I recommend getting a Canadian SIM card so you can get around and stay in contact with loved ones. We don’t have a lot of free WIFI in Canada, so you’ll need your phone for maps.

🏩  What’s the best way to book my Canada accommodations?

My go-to for Canadian hotels is Booking.com . For hostels, I use Hostel World . If you want a home-y feeling, check out VRBO (which is cheaper and safer than Airbnb).

Or get free accommodations with Trusted Housesitters!

✈️  What’s the best site to buy Canada flights?

For finding cheap Canadian flights, I recommend  Skyscanner .

🎫  Do I need a visa for Canada?

Likely Not  — US, UK, and EU passport holders don’t need Canadian visas. However, some other countries do ( check here! ). And if you plan to stay for more than 4 weeks (an average tourist visa length), you will need to look into visas to live in Canada.

5 Must-Visit Day Trips From Halifax, Nova Scotia

There’s so more to Nova Scotia than its capital city.

• Share to Facebook
• Share to Twitter
• Share to Linkedin

The Bluenose II arrives to its home port of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. Built by Smith and Rhuland it was constructed to match the same plans as the original Bluenose. Angus J. Walters, captain of the first Bluenose served as a consultant on the project. In 1971 the Bluenose II became Nova Scotia's sailing ambassador.

There’s a lot to see and do in Halifax—it’s the largest city east of Montreal, and while it’s much smaller than its contemporaries in the rest of Canada, there are still endless attractions and restaurants to explore in the capital of Nova Scotia.

That said—if you’re visiting Halifax, it’s worth it to explore outside of the city as well. Nova Scotia is arguably one of the most beautiful provinces in the country and a lot of the more nature-focused or quintessentially Atlantic Canadian culture is found outside of the city limits.

The following destinations are easily accessible by car and some can even be reached by bus if you’re feeling adventurous. Here, five must-visit day trips from Halifax that’ll give you a greater understanding of everything Nova Scotia has to offer.

Peggy’s Cove

Peggy's Cove Lighthouse under blue summer sky. Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia, Canada. Day and Night Series.

The first thing most travelers think of when conjuring up images of Nova Scotia is Peggy’s Cove . The infamous lighthouse and quaint fishing village is a must-visit when visiting Halifax but most visitors don’t realize the attraction is actually about an hour outside of the downtown core. It’s an easy half-day trip but you’ll want to consider sticking around the area and indulging in local fare at a seafood shack like Tom's Lobster Shack.

The beautiful and historic town of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia in the fall. Boats drift in the harbour and the amazing colours of the buildings in this picturesque seaside town add to the scene. This image was taken across the harbour from town on a gorgeous fall morning. Lunenburg is located approximately an hour from Halifax.

Lunenburg is another one of those quintessentially Nova Scotian spots to visit when visiting. It’s about an hour outside of the city (and is accessible with hired bus if you’re not interested in renting a car). The port town dates back to 1753 and is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. In fact, UNESCO considers it the best example of a British colonial settlement in North America. It’s also the home of the Bluenose—the most famous sailboat in Canadian history.

Wonderful vinyards, field of lush green grapevines, Nova Scotia, Canada

Wolfville in the Annapolis Valley has always been a popular option for daytrippers coming from Halifax—but these days it has become even more culturally significant thanks to the rise in Nova Scotian wine. It’s only about 90 minutes from Halifax and is home to almost all of the most popular and legacy vineyards in the province (be sure to have a glass of Tidal Bay wine while you’re there!).

Bay of Fundy

Image of the flowerpot at Burntcoat Head an hour after high tide. The water level changes at a speed of around 2 inches per minute.The highest tides of the world are recorded here, at Burntcoat Head with an average of 55.8 feet. The highest tide was during the tropical cyclone Saxby Gale in 1969 at 70.9 feet.

Did you know that Nova Scotia has the highest reported tides in the world? It’s true—and you can experience it on an afternoon trip to Burntcoat Head Park in the Bay of Fundy. Check the tide schedule before heading out to walk the ocean floor—and be sure to stick around the park when the tide comes in so you can witness the unbelievable difference in water levels within a few short hours’ time.

Martinique Beach

Martinique Beach, Canada: Two surfers stroll down the long curving crescent of Martinique Beach on a hot July afternoon.

Martinique Beach is the longest sandy beach in Nova Scotia at an uninterrupted five kilometres of coastline. It’s about an hour from the downtown core and is well-worth visiting any time of year. In summer and early fall, you can watch the abundance of surfers and surf students catching waves. The winter months are quite a bit more chilly but can be a very peaceful spot to beach comb and enjoy the soothing waves of the Atlantic Ocean.
