Queens wharf on the Halifax waterfront is a fantastic place to visit at anytime of the day.  The wharf is home base to the Tall Ship Silva (Canada's largest three masted schooner) and the sailing boat MAR II.  The maritime museum of the Atlantic is located nearby as is the CSS Acadia which survived two world wars as well as the Halifax explosion of 1917.  A number of visiting ships add a changing element to the wharf, including yachts, motor yachts and the occasional warship.
