On Foot
Downtown Halifax is very walkable. The Waterfront boardwalk runs along the harbour — the full Harbourwalk is about 4km, and the ferry terminal to the Seaport Market is roughly 1.5km. Spring Garden Rd is a pedestrian-friendly shopping street.

By Ferry
The Alderney Ferry crosses Halifax Harbour every 30 minutes. Stunning views of the waterfront. Dartmouth has its own great restaurants and parks worth visiting.
