When is the best time to go to Melville Cove?

The best time to visit Melville Cove is during the summer months, from June to September, when the weather is at its finest for outdoor activities and exploring the coast. During this period, you can expect long, sunny days and comfortable temperatures, superb for enjoying the beaches, hiking trails, and boat tours. The ocean is also warmer, making activities like swimming and kayaking more pleasant. This is an ideal time for couples looking for a relaxing coastal escape or families wanting to make the most of the natural beauty. The shoulder seasons of May and October also offer a lovely experience with fewer crowds and often pleasant weather, though it can be a bit cooler.

Cambridge Suites Hotel

8/10 Good

"The 1 bedroom suite was very comfortable and clean. Minor issues were address by staff immediately and to our complete satisfaction. The bed and pillows were also very comfortable. The hot breakfast was good but was lacking the meat to accompany the scramble eggs ( no ham, bacon or sausage) and that I didn’t understand. Finally we enjoyed the use of the rooftop patio on a beautiful warm and sunny early evening which was great! Thank you to all your staff for the friendly and professional manner in which we were treated. We will definitely be back."

The Sutton Place Hotel Halifax

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely hotel. We had dinner two different nights in the restaurant. The food and service was wonderful but the music spoiled the experience. Conversations got louder as people tried to speak over the music. Some nice soft dinner music would’ve made dinner so much more enjoyable."
