Halifax Cruise
Cruise guests can enjoy a sneak peak of the Halifax port-of-call experience.
Looking for a new location to turn passengers around on Canada's East Coast? Halifax is the ideal port for homeporting.
A Marquee Port
Halifax is a marquee port of call on the Canada-New England cruise itinerary. Ideally situated for cruise lines that operate along North America's East Coast, Halifax is only a day's sail from either New York or Boston.
Halifax offers cruise visitors diverse cultural heritage and natural beauty – three seasons of the year – Spring, Summer & Fall.
Strolling from the Seaport cruise ship terminal, experience the world's longest harbourfront boardwalk leading you to Historic Properties and the downtown core where you can enjoy shopping, dining and many attractions. Shore excursions and private vehicle tours offer cruise passengers a glimpse of the unspoiled beauty of the region. Whether you choose to walk pristine beaches, kayak the shoreline, visit wineries, museums or national historic sites, the people of Halifax welcome you with open arms and a genuine spirit.
