Halifax Kayak and Hike Tour

This full day guided kayak tour and hike of Terence Bay will leave you feeling one with nature.

Your kayak tour will leave from a sheltered cove on the Lower Prospect peninsula. You’ll spend the first half of the tour exploring incredible bays, islands, inlets, and shorelines such as Cub Basin, Betty’s Island, Rogues Roost and the Terence Bay Wilderness Protected Area. You’ll return back to base for lunch and enjoy the scenic view from the wharf.

After lunch, you’ll venture onto the lower half of the Terence Bay Wilderness Preserve for a hike along Shipley’s Head. With your guide, you’ll visit the Terence Bay light house and walk along the SS Atlantic Heritage park trail while enjoying the magnificent view of the Terence Bay cliffs. You’ll have a chance to visit the small Interpretation center onsite.
