Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron Marina

The oldest yacht club in the Americas, the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron has been a Halifax institution since 1837, tucked into a well-sheltered spot along Purcell's Cove Road. It's a genuinely lively place — youth sailing programs, regattas, and a strong social scene make it feel like more than just a place to tie up. Mooring and launching facilities are available, and the club covers sailing, swimming, and socializing all in one spot.
