Can you drive to Nova Scotia without taking a ferry?
Can you drive to Nova Scotia without taking a ferry? Getting to Nova Scotia via driving, flying, or catching the ferry is extremely easy as the province isn't actually an island - like many people assume - but rather a peninsula, so you don't have to cross over any bodies of water to get there.
Do you have to pay for the Halifax ferry?
Fare: $2.75 one way. Ask for a free transfer for a return trip. Experience 360-degree views of the Halifax Harbour on the harbour ferry. At just $2.75, the 15-minute journey between the Halifax waterfront and Dartmouth is the most affordable harbour cruise around.
Are Nova Scotia ferries still free?
The Nova Scotia government is permanently removing fees from all seven of the ferry services operating within the province. Premier Iain Rankin announced the change today at the Englishtown ferry, where a boat transports people across St. Anns Bay between Englishtown and Jersey Cove in northern Cape Breton.
