🇨🇦 The Ultimate Halifax Travel & Food Guide All You Need in One Post

I spent 4 days and 3 nights in Halifax and got to experience all the must-try foods and attractions 🍁🌊 Fellow travelers, feel free to use this as your reference! Day 1 Took the 320 bus directly from the airport to downtown Halifax 🚌 Fare: $4.25 — or download the HFX GO app for easy payment The final stop is right in the downtown core. A short walk downhill leads to the waterfront! 🍦 COWS Ice Cream Tried the lemon and coffee flavors — both delicious! The waffle cones are super filling 🍦 🍽️ The Bicycle Thief Had the famous lobster roll — pretty good! 🦞 The king crab dumplings were just okay though. 🌅 Point Pleasant Park A huge park with a quiet coastline — perfect for a relaxing walk 🚶 The foggy weather and dark rocks gave off major Nordic vibes 😮 Loved chilling on the benches by the sea — great for (zoning out)! Day 2 Got a 1-day bus pass — works on both buses and ferries! ⛴️ Took the ferry from Halifax Ferry Terminal to the other side of the harbor 🍣 Doraku (Japanese restaurant) Their pork cutlet rice was decent, but the sushi wasn’t anything special 🍙 🎨 Fisherman’s Cove (via bus 6B) Rows of colorful little houses 🏠 Local shops selling souvenirs and food The lobster roll at the shop at the end of the road was pretty tasty! 🌄 Citadel Hill If you time it right, it’s a great spot to watch the sunset! Afterward, strolled through the Halifax Public Gardens — so peaceful 🌳 Day 3 🍜 Xiaoyu Guilin Noodles Ordered the large intestine noodles — generous portion, a tad salty though 🐖 Their signature Guilin noodles weren’t as good as the intestine version 😅 🏛️ Canadian Museum of Immigration Learned about Canada’s immigration history — guided tours available for those interested 🎧 🛶 Kayaking Adventure Tried a 90-minute kayaking session — the instructor was super enthusiastic! First-time kayaking = totally exhausted but amazing experience 💦 🍴 Sea Smoke Restaurant (recommended by the kayaking coach) The halibut was incredible! 🤤 Served with lemon or grapefruit sauce, atop mashed potatoes with tangy greens — so flavorful! The grilled lobster was good too, but the halibut stole the show 🐟 🎸 Ended the night watching a Mexican street performance — my boyfriend even got pulled on stage as a “tool man” 😂 So fun! Day 4 Booked a half-day tour to Peggy’s Cove 🌊 🍛 Mary's African Cuisine First time trying African food — better than expected! But was shook when I saw the locals eating with their hands 😳 The chicken curry was rich and flavorful — worth a try! 🌫️ Peggy’s Cove The fog was thick that day, but it added a mysterious vibe 🌁 The waves crashing against the rocks were powerful and mesmerizing 🪨 Our tour guide was super knowledgeable and kept us entertained the whole ride! 🦪 Shuck Seafood Made it back just in time for happy hour — oysters only $1.50 each! Also had the mussel and shrimp pasta — fresh and delicious 🍝 ✈️ Finally, took the 320 bus back to the airport and returned to Toronto! #HalifaxTravel #HalifaxFood #ExploreCanada #EastCoastVibes #TravelGuide #FoodieAdventure 🍴
