About the Tall Ship Silva Sailing Cruise
Your visit to Halifax will simply not be complete without experiencing a scenic sailing cruise on the world's second-largest natural harbour – the Halifax Harbour. Join us aboard Halifax’s signature ship, the Tall Ship Silva, for local, live music and to see the sights, city, and coastline, from a unique perspective. While on board our historic, three-masted schooner, you’ll see some of Halifax’s most well-known landmarks including Georges Island National Historic Site, the Historic Properties, the vibrant waterfront, and the scenic Northwest Arm. If conditions are favourable, you’ll be invited to join the crew in raising the sails – this is especially fun for the little ones. So come, relax, refresh with a beverage or two from the onboard bar, and enjoy your leisurely sailing cruise on the water.
About the Sunset Cruise
When you’re searching for the best sunset spot in Halifax, look no further than the Halifax Harbour. Experience golden hour, that magical time of night when the sun makes its way below the horizon, on the Halifax Sunset Cruise aboard our signature ship, the Tall Ship Silva. Purchase wine, beer, cocktails, and other beverages from our onboard bar before you set off from Cable Wharf, cruise past historic Georges Island and make your way towards Maugher Beach and the iconic McNabs Island lighthouse. If conditions are favourable, you’ll be invited to help raise the sails before the Silva circles back for a cruise alongside the stunning Halifax Waterfront. As the sun sets and reflects against the city skyline, historic buildings, and open waters, be sure to snap and share plenty of photos and videos. The Halifax Sunset Cruise is the perfect blend of scenic beauty, relaxation, and unforgettable maritime charm.
