As noted above the Maritime Museum of try Atlantic.

If you're there on a weekend the Farmers Market on the waterfront is pretty neat.

Halifax Public Gardens are pretty, not huge but nice.

In terms of eating Your Father's Moustache is my favourite pub food. It's not greasy like typical pub food and the waitresses are super hot (not to mention really good at their jobs, service there is top notch). This is located on Spring Garden Road, sit on the patio!

Chives consistently has the best ranked chef in the city. The chefs/owners also opened a more lunch style resturant two doors down called "Two Doors Down" both are on Barrington Street.

The patios on Argyle are awesome (there is construction across the street of the new convention centre but don't let that deter you.

If you're venturing outside the downtown core (or the penninsula as the locals will call it) Kartbaun in Baters Lake is a lot of fun. Golfing at Glen Arbour is from what I'm told the best place to enjoy 18 holes.

Take a harbour cruise. They're relaxing and you see the city from a whole new perspective. There are tons in the boardwalk from the Harbour Hopper which tours the downtown in their weird boat on wheels and then "hops" into the harbour and tours from the water; to a Theadore Tugboat replica that gives a tour. If money and time is tight just cross on the Dartmouth ferry and back.

There are several brewery tours available (Alexander Keith's, Garrison, Propeller).

What are you looking to do, and when will you be there?

Lastly, wings at Oasis are good, when I go I order them with HalifaxDrunk so is recommend eating them like that. T

Feel free to send me a PM. I lived in Halifax for a few years and still visit several times a year.

If you're going Labour Day weekend you're welcome to join my bachelor party
