It's interesting to contrast the beach and park/amenity situation and mentality in Halifax with Vancouver. Parts of Vancouver have an almost resort-like feel (e.g., around Davie and Denman), and there are nice beaches with lots of amenities nearby. As the AI suggests above these beaches are significantly man-made and maintained. The summers here aren't really any longer or hotter than Halifax. Vancouver is a much larger city, but Halifax could have some of the same kinds of amenities.
There is Black Rock Beach but it's kind of underwhelming and low on amenities. The Waegwoltic has an outdoor waterfront pool but it's private. Something like an outdoor saltwater pool by King's Wharf and/or a small beach (which they had in some renderings) with city and harbour views would be great. I wonder if it's possible to do some kind of solar heating system that brings in salt water then heats it a bit more.
