Description:

Leave the shores behind as you set sail through the steel blue waters of Halifax Harbour. With the wind at your back, gaze out at stunning views of George’s Island while you take a break on the spacious decks of a wooden tall ship, built in 1959.

Climb aboard the 75-foot (23-m) Mar, a Danish-designed ketch that has toured the world, and now waits to take you on a thrilling adventure off the coast of Nova Scotia. As you cruise out of the marina, find a comfortable spot to sit and let the gusting breeze pull you into the harbor.

Enjoy the refreshing ocean air as you snap photos of the charming environment. Consider grabbing a drink at the onboard bar while your experienced captain maintains the course and offers fascinating anecdotes about the local area.

Before you head back to shore, take your own turn at the boat’s wheel and learn how to adjust the rigging from your attentive crew. When the wind dies down, help lower the sails and return to shore while grabbing closer looks at the stunning scenery.
