Overview

A cruise aboard The Tall Ship Silva is the perfect way to fully appreciate a beautiful day on the Halifax Harbour. Join us on our comfortable and thoroughly impressive vessel for this relaxing afternoon outing on the water. Your journey beings on the Halifax waterfront as you set off into the big harbour where you’ll have a unique perspective of some of Halifax’s most notable landmarks including Georges Island, the Halifax Waterfront, Historic Properties, and more. Passengers will be invited to help the crew hoist the Silva’s sails, enjoy a beverage or two from the onboard Murphy’s Pub, and then simply sit back, relax and enjoy a beautiful day out on the water.

Great time onboard.

Published on Sep, 2024

Great ride around the harbour with great entertainment. Impressive ship but never really uses the sails for moving. Had perfect sunny day which added to the overall experience. Would suggest booking based on weather forecast.

Great way to see the city snd the harbour

Had a very enjoyable evening cruise on the Tall Ship Silva. Having the chance to cruise the Halifax harbour was a life experience. The entertainment was top notch ad well. I highly recommend this tour.

Overall Enjoyable Experience

Published on Sep, 2024

Relaxing experience. There was entertainment that added to the overall enjoyment. It was windy so the sails were not up for long and we had to dock at a different dock than we left from but the experience of being on the water was very enjoyable.

Fun Sailing Cruise

Published on Sep, 2024

This was a really fun experience and great value! A really unique and lovely way to enjoy the harbor in Halifax. I loved when they finally raised the sails!
