For a day away from the office, Oak Island Resort on the South Shore is about 45 minutes from Halifax, and Wolfville in the Valley is about an hour.

THE PAYOFF
Why Nova Scotia is Great for Team Building
The practical reasons Nova Scotia works when you need to get a team together.
-
Easy to Get Everyone There
Two harbour bridges and the Halifax–Dartmouth ferry (running since 1752) tie both sides of HRM together, so teammates on either side of the harbour can meet in one spot.
-
Indoor and Outdoor, Any Time of Year
Take the group into the 75 hectares of forest trails at Point Pleasant Park, or keep everyone inside a harbourfront hotel ballroom. Any date on your calendar works.
-
Venues for Any Group Size
A meeting room for ten at the Lord Nelson, or 120,000+ square feet at the Halifax Convention Centre. You pick the space and we bring the event.
-
A Waterfront Made for Exploring
The 4.4 km Harbourwalk runs along the downtown waterfront, past cafés and museums, so a scavenger-hunt team has plenty of ground to cover on foot.
-
Somewhere to Celebrate After
Argyle Street downtown has restaurants for the wrap-up. If your event ran on the Dartmouth side, Alderney Landing has dining with harbour views.
