Photo of the Halifax, Nova Scotia waterfront boardwalk showing a docked cruise ship. Text on the image says "Halifax, Nova Scotia 2024 Cruise Ship Schedule".

Halifax, Nova Scotia is quite a busy port when it comes to cruise ships! The port offers a full-service cruise terminal and is able to accommodate the world’s largest cruise ships.

For the 2024 cruise season, there are 200+ cruise ships scheduled to visit Halifax (up from about 180 in 2023) which is great news for the city.

The first ships arrive in April and continue visiting through November. September and October are projected to be the busiest months as many ships call Halifax to offer passengers the opportunity to see the beautiful autumn colours of Canada’s Maritime provinces.

If your ship is visiting Halifax, there is a good chance you’ll dock at one of the main cruise ship berths, either Pier 22 or Pier 20. These two piers combined will welcome about 70% of the ships docking in Halifax for the 2024 cruise season.

These piers are linked to the port’s dedicated cruise terminals (Pavilion 22 and Pavilion 20), giving passengers direct ship-to-shore access. When multiple ships are in port, other berths may be used, such as Pier 24 and Pier 27 which are both very nearby.

Below you will find the complete Halifax cruise ship schedule for 2024 that displays the name of the ship, the cruise operator, the date, arrival/departure times, and the number of passengers for the ships that are scheduled to be in port this cruise season.
