Description

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 favorable, you’ll be invited to help raise the sails before the Silva circles back for a cruise alongside the stunning Halifax Waterfront.

Great Tour

It was a great boat ride. It was a very pretty view and great scenery to look at the whole time. There was plenty of live music but I wish the seating back better options. We had plastic chairs that were stacked back to back. That didn’t leave much leg more, or personally space with people pushing against us.

Definitely recommend!

We had a wonderful time on the sunset cruise. The live music was excellent and we were lucky to have a perfect weather evening too. We only wished it could have lasted a bit longer. The price was reasonable and felt like good value.

Not for Us

We decided it wan't for us. The one problem was it was cold that night which is not their fault. We would have preferred a different kind of ship. It was too open seating for us and the music was ok not great.
