How We Pick the Best Online Casinos in Nova Scotia
Here are the main factors we look at when we pick the top-rated online casinos for Nova Scotia players:
Security
Your security and safety are essential factors. As such, we ensure that all the casinos we recommend have been licensed by a top governing body such as the UK Gambling Commission or Malta Gaming Authority.
Advanced fairness checks
We also see that the site is protected by high-end SSL encryption technology. Another factor we consider is whether the games on the site are regularly tested by third-party organizations such as eCOGRA to determine fairness and trustworthy RNGs.
Each of our casinos utilizes 128-bit or 256-bit SSL encryption technology so that your details are fully protected. Whenever you register with a new casino recommended by us, you can always feel assured that your details and your money are safe and secure.
Mobile compatibility
The best Nova Scotia casinos should all be fully compatible with most mobile devices. Most people prefer to play on the go, and offering an excellent mobile experience is vital. Ideally, they would offer a fully optimized mobile casino site and a downloadable real money casino app so that you can play when you want, however you want.
Betting options
The best sites will offer a variety of games from the top online casino game developers.
We like to see slot games, table games, progressive jackpot games, and a live casino section. There should be enough choices for all different types of players. Instant win games are an added bonus.

Why play live dealers online in Nova Scotia
- Playing in person requires transportation to the nearest Nova Scotia casino, but you also need to keep in mind the dress code and lodging costs.

Our experts’ take is that live dealers online fit a broader variety of budgets. Although the social interaction is limited to a chat feature, the gaming experience is authentic and free of additional amenity costs.

#1. Halifax Casino Nova Scotia – rating 3.7/5
The Halifax Casino is great for events and VIP packages. Still, if you’re not a fan of crowded places, look elsewhere or better play online.
Our verdict: good casino
In terms of gaming options, Halifax Casino is still far from the best online casinos, but it is still the highest-rated local casino in Nova Scotia.
#2. Sydney Casino Nova Scotia – rating 3.5/5
Our analysis of the Sydney Casino showed it has similar features to other land casinos owned by Great Canadian Entertainment.
Our verdict: average casino
While the full range of table games may be subject to availability, our reviewers found Sydney Casino to have fewer slot machines than its Halifax sister venue.
#3. AFC Entertainment Centre – rating 3.3/5
Electronic slots and roulette machines are the best attractions for gamblers at the AFC Centre. You should look for another the location for top live dealers.
Our verdict: fair casino
The AFC Centre may disappoint glamor-seeking high-rollers. It remains a decent option for penny slots players.
#4. Inverness Raceway – rating 3.2/5
If you want to see the horse race live while you bet, you should pay Inverness Raceway a visit. Still, keep in mind this is a rather old-fashioned casino.
Our verdict: poor casino
Take our final verdict with a grain of salt. Inverness Raceway is not a lousy place to visit, but the casino player not interested in horse racing may not have a stellar experience.
#5. Dartmouth Sportsplex Super Bingo – rating 3/5
Dartmouth Casino is a small, but welcoming bingo casino in Nova Scotia.
Our verdict: poor casino
Unfortunately, outside bingo, the casino has little variety in other categories. Our experts advise you to choose another venue for regular events and gaming tables.
