Description
This two-hour sail allows you to soak in the sights along the coastline so close to our urban center! Pass by landmarks such as George's Island, Pier 21, Point Pleasant Park, and more. This laid-back sail is designed for you to enjoy maximum relaxation, and leave the work to our crew. If you'd like to be involved in the sailing, we would love the opportunity to show you the ropes! After being greeted with a custom local cocktail (or mocktail!) upon arrival, you can choose to explore the sailing yacht, take in the sights, or try your hand at the helm.

Perfect way to get on the water.
Easy to find, easy to board, easy to enjoy! We loved our sail. It was a beautiful day, the crew was kind and friendly and the captain was very attentive to his job. The complementary drinks were great, the small number of passengers led to delightful conversation. I would happily go again and again. I did wish for a small amount of commentary about the coast as we sailed (not a full historical tour, just a bit a of knowledge sharing), I do realize each person might wish for something different and this is no way took away from the experience- I just love to Know Things!

Great private summer cruise
We booked the entire boat for a 4pm sail and thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing two-hour cruise. The captain and crew were outstanding—professional, welcoming, and attentive throughout.
I’d happily book again on my next trip to Halifax. For the ultimate experience, I highly recommend reserving the whole boat.
Thank you for the wonderful hospitality!

Authentic sailing experience in Halifax Harbour
This is by far the best way to get out on the water in Halifax and enjoy an authentic sail. In 2 hours, you can make it well out into the mouth of the harbour. You can sit back and relax, or potentially help raise the sails and take the helm. Kim and Blair are very welcoming and friendly and keep everything safe

Beautiful summer afternoon sail experience
Excellent sailing experience. Pricey but worth it. Slow and steady, calm and peaceful (if the weather is right). Beautiful views of St George Island. Crew was very friendly and experienced.

Set Sail with Halifax Summer Breeze
Take an afternoon or evening off and set sail on a real sailboat with professional sailors. While taking in Halifax's views, be sure to listen closely as your crew members will teach you a bit about sailing and give you an opportunity to try it out. We were a tour of nine people plus our two crew members. Could not have been any better!
Operator response
Thank you for your kind words, so glad we could welcome your group aboard!

Great sailing
Great sailing experience with our Captain, Ryan and his mate Mitch. They made the sail informative, fun and they were very attentive to our questions and we were also able to enjoy a lovely glass of wine while on board. Would recommend for everyone. Didn't hurt that the weather was amazing.

Best way to see Halifax from the water
I had a wonderful two hours exploring the Halifax Harbour on this sailing tour. I really appreciated that the crew involved us in the actual sailing—it made the experience even more special. Big shoutout to captain Finn and deckhand Ali for being so friendly and helpful throughout the trip! Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Halifax.
