By Natasha Jervis: This grand shipping and fishing city doesn’t get enough coverage! Visitors can enjoy rich culture while touring the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, or the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. History lovers should take a trip to Pier 21 and the 18th century Citadel National Historic area. If you’re into the arts then try to visit during mid-may when the Atlantic Jazz Fest is on, or visit in the first week of September when the Atlantic Fringe and Atlantic Film events are on. Nature enthusiasts will love a hike in Pleasant Park, or a tour across McNab’s Island. Enjoy a shopping experience walking along Spring Garden Road, or Barrington Street. Ready to relax? Visit Rainbow Haven Beach, in Cole Harbor, and “lay out” on the sand. Go! |
