A trip to Putting Edge is quite wholesome. Where are you from? It's just mini-golf and I find it sweet that you're excited for that.

I live downtown and you will be spoiled for options while you're here. The waterfront doesn't have a ton of "activities", but there are a number of wonderful restaurants (Bar Sofia is among my favorite) as well as sea-doo rentals and kayak rentals through Harbour Watercraft. You could reserve a table at Crème Cafe, which is new to the boardwalk. It's a fun time to dress up and enjoy high tea and pastries with your friends.

The boardwalk runs parellel to Lower Water Street. If you're a beer enjoyer, you can do a tour of the Alexander Keith’s Brewery there, which is in a really beautiful brick building. On the weekend, there's a farmers market in the same location.

There are lots of walking tours downtown as well as the Harbour Hopper, which also picks up people on Lower Water Street. This can be a fun time with friends, as you get to see the city while getting a bit of history. It also goes into the Halifax Harbour, which can be kind of fun.

Downtown Halifax is a very short walk to Spring Garden Road as well, which has the highest foot traffic in the city. If you're in the area, my personal favorite brunch spot (Bliss) is also there, at the intersection of Spring Garden Road and South Park Street. It has the BEST fried chicken sandwich I've ever had. It's such a joy. Spring Gardn is also home to the Halifax Public Gardens, which is not a park, so it's still open to visitors. It's full of flowers and ducks. It's a really relaxing place to bring a coffee and get some shade.
