Halifax Boardwalk

Constructed of durable heavy timber, the Halifax boardwalk is open to the public 24 hours a day.

[1] The final working vessels to regularly operate from the waterfront were pilot boats which were based at a small pier at the foot of Sackville Street, but in late 2020 their base moved to a wharf in Dartmouth near the foot of the Macdonald Bridge.

[2] The former tug and pilotage wharves have since been partially demolished and refurbished to make way for new public amenities.

It stretches northwards along the coast for approximately 3 km (2 mi) before it terminates in front of Casino Nova Scotia at its northern terminus.

The waterfront boardwalk is administered by Build Nova Scotia, a provincial crown corporation, which has an office at the Cable Wharf.
