Perfect for seafood lovers and history buffs, here’s how to soak up Halifax’s maritime magic in 72 hours—without a car! 🌊 Day 1: Waterfront Wander Stroll the Historic Seaport: Quirky shops, lobster rolls, and harbor views galore. Pro tip: Grab a donair (Halifax’s iconic street food) and people-watch on the piers. 🏰 Day 2: Downtown Treasures Citadel Hill ($13): 19th-century fort with animated soldier reenactments (kids love this!). Old Town Clock: Quick IG stop—literally Halifax’s postcard landmark. Public Gardens: Victorian-era flower beds + duck ponds = picnic heaven. 🚐 Day 3: Day-Trip to Peggy’s Cove & Beyond ($175pp) Peggy’s Cove Lighthouse: Moody fog = perfect photos (watch for waves!). Lunenburg: UNESCO town with rainbow houses + The Half Shell (seafood platter = 💯). Mahone Bay: Blink-and-you’ll-miss-it charm (20 mins is enough). 🍽️ Can’t-Miss Eats 1️⃣ Shuck Seafood: Oysters + octopus legs = fresh AF. Those skinny fries though! 2️⃣ The Bicycle Thief: Seafood chowder = creamy bliss (book weeks ahead!). 3️⃣ Skip Blue Nose II: Lobster roll? Meh. Fish & chips? Soggy crime. 🚌 Transport Tips Airport → Downtown: Take Bus 320 (HFX Go app = easy tickets). Regional Express buses > local routes (faster + comfier). #Halifax #NovaScotia #EastCoastCanada
