St. Paul's Anglican Church
Halifax, Canada
St. Paul's Anglican Church is a prominent Gothic Revival structure, completed in 1750, making it the oldest Protestant church in Canada. Its steeply pitched roof, ornate stained glass windows, and intricately carved woodwork highlight the craftsmanship of the era. The church's bell tower, which can be seen from various vantage points in Halifax, is an iconic part of the city's skyline.
Visitors can admire the interior's historical features and the peaceful atmosphere during services or explore the churchyard, which contains several notable graves. The church is conveniently located near the Halifax Waterfront and the Historic Properties, making it easy to incorporate into a broader exploration of the area’s maritime heritage.

Halifax Harbour Hopper land and water tour

“We enjoyed the Harbour Hopper tour in Halifax Harbour with our group of four. Our adventure kicked off perfectly as we relaxed on the pier with local Halifax beer, enjoying the warm sun and embracing our roles as sophisticated maritime folks—despite being tourists about to board a bus that would drive into the ocean. The harbour was stunning, the beer refreshing, and the sun intense. Halifax is unique in that you can experience both frostbite and sunburn simultaneously. Our guide, Adam, was full of energy and humor, sharing Halifax’s history along with amusing local anecdotes that only got funnier as we went along. Captain Shannon expertly maneuvered the large bus through downtown Halifax’s narrow streets, which seemed more suited for bikes and compact cars. Interestingly, the bus measures 10.5 feet wide, while some streets felt just shy of that. At times, it was wise to keep hands and elbows inside, unless you were okay with risking them. One moment we were cruising through the city, and the next, our captain smoothly launched the bus into the harbour like it was a typical Tuesday routine. Our reaction was akin to kids at an amusement park the instant we hit the water. A heads up: if you’re in the front window seats, be prepared to get splashed. I knew I was in trouble the moment I saw the wave coming, and soon I was leaving with a soaked backside. Would we do this again? Definitely. Strongly recommended.”— June H on the Halifax Harbour Hopper land and water tour tour
