Alderney Landing in Dartmouth is a short ferry ride from downtown Halifax, the capital city of Nova Scotia, Canada.

The waterfront parks of Dartmouth and Alderney Landing provide unobstructed views of the Halifax City skyline.

Tall city buildings sparkle under the afternoon sun as the waterfront bustles with visitors. Halifax Harbour is the second largest ice-free natural harbour (after Sydney Harbour, Australia) in the world and can cater to an array of shipping traffic including cruise ships, freight ships and leisure boats.

The city of Halifax is the economic nerve centre of Nova Scotia, the second smallest province of Canada, but the most populated of Atlantic Canada.
