The beautifully restored buildings on the Halifax waterfront are reminiscent of the city's centuries-old naval and maritime heritage.

But in a city that seems, on the surface, so intact from time, there's an undercurrent of youthful movement. Ambitious restaurants, a raucous nightlife, and an ever-flourishing surf culture belie Newport's poised reputation.
