Holidays to Halifax on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia in Canada are about the quirky and vibrant city as well as maritime history, foreign settlers who made Halifax their own and the stunning beauty of the nearby coastline. Jump on a flight to Halifax to experience this part of Canada for yourself.
Most holidays to Halifax start at the Halifax Robert L. Stanfield International Airport, the city's airport. Since there's no public transport that connects the airport to the city it's a good idea to invest in Halifax car hire to get you to your hotel and help you get around on your holiday in Halifax.
There are a wide choice of hotels in Halifax, many provided by big brand names in both the budget and high-end hotels. There are also some independent hotels, bed and breakfast providers and self-catering accommodation if you want to tailor your holiday in Halifax a little more. As the city is large and sprawling, it's best to research the areas a little before you book, so that you can explore on foot.
Taking the Harbour Hopper is a great way to get to know the city, as the amphibious craft will take you round all the key sights. Don't miss the Halifax Citadel, perched high up above the harbour overlooking the city, offering great views, particularly of the Canada Day celebrations. Take Alexander Keith's Brewery Tour for a quirkier look at the city or get serious at Pier 21 and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. Don't miss out on the surrounding area either, with St. Margaret's Bay one of the nearby beauties.
