The Area
Situated just a short ferry ride across Halifax Harbour from downtown Halifax, Dartmouth is home to many quaint cafes, noteworthy food joints, shops, and a charm all its own!
Dartmouth, also known as the City of Lakes, boasts 23 lakes that provide opportunities for kayaking, windsurfing, canoeing, and swimming. Paddle on Lake Banook or visit one of the many parks and walking trails that stretch out into the unspoiled coastal beauty of the Eastern Shore.
