Discover the Best Place to People Watch with Our Team!
Our Guest Experience Team members are not just experts on everything inside our Centre; they also have key insights on our city. This week, we asked our team the best places for people-watching in Halifax.
The Halifax Waterfront

Halifax Waterfront is a vibrant hub of activity, offering a diverse range of experiences against the stunning backdrop of the ocean. The boardwalk is a treasure trove of local gift shops, the Salt Yard Food Kiosks attract foodies from all over, and so much more. Vern loves to soak up the sun, sit on a bench, and take in the scene, especially when a cruise ship is in port!
Halifax Brewery Market

Kari-Lynn thrives in the bustling atmosphere of the Halifax Brewery Market. This year-round market, open every Saturday, is a testament to the city's vibrant local community. There's nothing quite like people-watching as they discover and support these local businesses!

Citadel Hill

Right in the heart of the city, Citadel Hill provides the perfect vantage point to overlook the view and catch what others are up to. The hillsides leave plenty of room for seasonal fun, such as picnics, flying kites, sunbathing, catching up on a good book, and, of course, people-watching! But don't take our word for it; take Ben's.
It's also the perfect spot in the winter to feel the thrills and toboggan down! Want more ideas on great Snowy Day activities? Click Here!
Spring Garden Road is a Hot Spot!
Keryn, Gabe, Riley, and Isaac all recommended different places along Spring Garden Road!
The Public Library has views from five different levels, making it easy to check out what's happening below. Find a seat by the window, do some work, or check out a book and look down on the streets of Halifax. You may find Keryn there, too!

Gabe recommends stopping to smell the roses... The Public Gardens is the perfect place to sit, enjoy the views, and find out what other people are up to on a sunny summer day.

Check out one of the many cafes because doesn't everything pair with coffee? Isaac recommends Starbucks, and Rylie recommends Glitter Bean Cafe. You could also try any of the coffee shops around Halifax! Click here to view our team's top picks for the best coffee spots.
