Perfect place to enjoy summer if you are in Toronto downtown. Harborfront will keep on amazing you with its calmness and serenity. The water and the view here is absolutely mesmerizing and will keep you hooked towards it forever. It's a nice place to spend some quality evening time with friends and family and can enjoy the city view with gorgeous skies.

We picked one of the hottest day of summer Wednesday July 5th.2023 to visit Harbourfront Centre. Overall one of the exciting trip by Go Train to Union Station and walk through many skyline towers to reach the waterfront. Beautiful views of Lake Ontario and surrounding areas where we took lots of pictures. Highly recommended to visit and enjoy this entertaining neighborhood.

Perfect place to capture sunset. Awesome feeling and calmness this place brings to your heart. Long walkway along the side of sea, good and clean sitting arrangements. Surrounded with multiple food stalls to fill your appetite on the way. Facilitated with water taxi and wide sight billy bishop airport runway.

Harbour front has its own space and people and vibe! The energy is so good that you get charged up especially in summers when you can chill around! The place is so calming and peaceful that you wished to stay and stay longer! The promenade is a nice long walk or do biking or skating! I usually prefer carrying packed food and having my own time there especially under the umbrellas to read books or just rest listening to the sea and birds around!

This harbor front is amazing 💯. Everything is beautiful, and there's so much to do and see. You can have a great dinner, stop and get dessert 🍨 and enjoy the boats 🚢 and planes landing and taking off at the airport. You can also turn around and check out Toronto's amazing skyline with the CN tower as the pin 📌 point. This place is worth spending some time 💯. Give it a try.

A very beautiful beach and a long walk along the beach may be a memorable trip to everyone, enjoy boating, speed boating with family and friends. You may enjoy the beautiful view of CN Tower and the skyrise buildings specially during evening.

Very nice place, calm, beautiful, serene with various food options, activities like recreational cycling, water boat, water taki, cruise and so on. Even you want to spend time alone listening your favourite music or reading your book, this is just a perfect place for it. In the morning, you will find many people doing jogging, walk, leisure time, lot of tourists, family time. Clean and well maintained. Overall you will enjoy it thoroughly on one side beautiful lake view and on other high skyline of Toronto buildings. Enjoyed my visit to this place thoroughly.

The Harbourfront is an exciting wide open inviting place to be. The centre currently under C19 rules but the space outdoors is there to enjoy. With expansive areas for walking, sitting, playing or eating this space caters to everyone. Small crafts or tall ships dot the docking area running the walkways offering immense visual delight. Family enjoyment abound for all.

Toronto Centre: Jameson Avenue to Harbourfront Centre Toronto is still the centre of the universe - 8 km hike from Jameson Avenue to the Harbourfront Centre.  The city has done so much to revitalize the waterfront as evidenced by the boardwalk and the continuous trail where there are bike lanes and lanes where people can walk or run. The highlight is the Ontario Place which was revitalized during the Wynne era. There are also a lot of new condos by the waterfront which must now cost a fortune. Another highlight is the Redpath Refinery which is an industrial heritage site now. We also passed by the Billy Bishop Airport, saw a couple of planes that landed as well as the barge which transported vehicles from the island airport to the mainland.

This place is gorgeous! Right beside the lake, there's plenty park seats with outlet plugs to charge your electric vehicle. My buddies and I come down here with our electric unicycles to enjoy the sunny weather. Fantastic! Stay safe out there people and please be kind to one another!

A great area in downtown Toronto, right on the waterfront with lots going on always. The area is definitely a year round destination but comes alive in the summer! Many shows and venues reside in this area and you can always find something interesting to do in the area. Super clean inside and out with great spaces everywhere. I was pleasantly surprised to find outdoor washroom facilities on site that were super clean, the best I’ve ever seen. Lots of food options, available nearby, as well as seating and places to chill.

Serenity! Where blue meets the blue! Lake Ontario is not an ocean, and Toronto is not just a city. This place, lakeside view, city nights, and the people around always attract me. A good place for a walk, views of the airplane landing at Billy Bishop airport, and the mesmerizing dark blue watercolor (if you are lucky enough). This place gets messy during weekends, especially when tourists come around to hop on the Toronto Island ferry, otherwise, a perfect place to sit with a coffee and enjoy the beauty!

The center, which opened in 1974, is a stunning urban playground and one of the most popular destinations for locals and visitors alik and a great place to spend time strolling, picnicking, gallery-hopping, biking, shopping, and sailing. Harbourfront has several venues devoted to the arts. Underground parking is available on-site at 235 Queens Quay West, or above-ground one block west at Rees Street and Queens Quay West.

One of the best places to go for a walk on a good day. Breezy and beautiful view of the lake. Perfect for viewing the sunset. Lots of people taking their pets for a stroll, others come for jogging along the lake. You can have a picnic on one of the many benches.

Decided to check out the Nordic Lights exhibition at Harbourfront. It was fascinating. We had a blast! Each display featured Nordic and Canadian light art. It makes for the perfect winter outdoor activity. It's a free event and runs until February 21st.

I'm sure there are times when it's exciting but there wasn't much going on the day we visited. It was fun watching some artisans in their studios. The Power Plant art gallery was definitely worth a visit. Boxcar Social restaurant has good coffee and excellent pastry.

Came here for the Iranian festival. Lots of nice jewelry vendors by the lake view to mingle around and browse. There is always an exhibition for patron to enjoy and avoid the heat. Water station available as well as washroom.

I had one night in Toronto and this area made the perfect backdrop for the event that was taking place nearby. A beautiful city stop.

Calm and tranquil place to relax. Plenty of options like cruises, bike rental,kayak, musical parks, restaurants and more. Lots of seating and a good place for a jog. View of the city on one side and calm waters on the other makes this place a must visit if you're in Toronto.

Waves that calm your nerves. Enjoy beer with these views or just sit by the boardwalk, such a pleasure it is! Looking to sail on the water, water taxi and more available with different price range. Washrooms available inside the commercial building.

Summer is the best at Harbourfront Center. I love the opportunity to experience so many different cultures at no extra cost. It's also just a 5 minute walk from Union Station.

One of the best place to hangout in Toronto. During Summers it provides more options like water taxi to nearby ilands, other water voyages, cruising etc. have plenty of options for dine in or eatery. During winter the lake get frozen.

Harbourfront Center is so beautiful. There are endless entertainment shows happening so you will never be bored. Many people walk in and around the area, so please be mindful and have patience. After all, we hibernate in the winter. Make the most out of summer since it is short.

If you're going there on a reg day, completely fine... this is for you if you're planning to go to see fireworks ! The worst location !!! Completely covered by trees and buildings .... + THEY NEVER DID A COUNTDOWN !!!

I’m coming here to enjoy a lakeside boardwalk (without any board) view. Walking there is considered a good exercise from start to finish. On the one side, you can see a grand view of Lake Ontario. The other is a cityscape of Toronto metropolis. You will never got lost as of the landmark CNTower erected to the sky seen at any spot you are. I plan to visit this place every time I come to Toronto.

Open to the public. Very clean public washrooms. There's a Farmboy grocery store and a few restaurants like The Goodman Pub, Joe Bird, Pie bar with excellent summer patios by the lake. Perfect place to hangout especially if you're waiting for a cruise departing the Queen's Quay terminal (City Cruises). Several paid parking garages nearby.

Harbourfront Centre has great arts, kids and other programming. We've had an amazing time with performances, festivals, eats, mini-pong and other adventures our 6 and 10y old kids love. Summer 2022 also featured a Renzo Piano exhibit...which was amazing to see the body of architectural work.

Nice view of the waterfront. Perfect place to bring your pets (dogs). Lots of restaurants to choose from. Fairly affordable prices. The Goodman restaurant even has a menu for dogs. Lots of benches to sit at. A great view of planes taking off and landing.

Enjoyed the space. Wasa great time of day and week; not too busy. Went to Centre island 🏝️, and upon our return,we had lunch and ice cream, dined at the tents. The cool breeze was welcomed during the deep heat(with humidex +40°c)

The skyline view is breathtaking. Just take precautions (like repellents) for Flies / Mosquitoes while in the Cruise. They were very irritating. We were there in the month of May.

Fun stroll to see the Lake front, get food and ice ream, watch glass blowing and textiles. There's even a museum of modern art. The wave ramp and a beaver

Pretty good to visit Lots to do Lots to see Great food to eat,just really really crowded We did a few activities and one thing I would love to see are more public Washrooms

Great place that hosts a multitude of national and international festivals. We've had the pleasure of visiting multiple times for various events, including concerts that left us in awe and festivals that celebrated diverse cultures. Beyond the vibrant festivities, it's also an ideal spot for a peaceful evening stroll along the waterfront, where the sea breeze rejuvenates the soul. We've often found ourselves just sitting by the shore, watching the waves dance under the moonlight. This place truly offers a unique blend of excitement and serenity that keeps drawing us back, making it a cherished destination for all occasions.

Loved it here.Smazing views and nice but expensive restaurants which are very busy.Lots of boat trips and people watching.Facinating place

Very nice view of the city. Dress warm during winter months. Parking is expensive $5 per 1/2 hour or $25 max after 6pm on weekdays. Take public transit or park farther away and enjoy the walk there.

Lots of people around, no mask, no social distance, not a care in the world. Hopefully doesn't back fire on us. Nonetheless we enjoy it, still a great place to be.

I loved the place and the view. I would go back again.

Unfortunately still closed as of Aug. 18, 2021 due to COVID - looking forward to seeing this hive of activity open again. It's looking barren so this painting on the floor of the pool was welcome.

Great place and view one of best place to visit in toronto for skyline view 🇨🇦🇨🇦

Really lovely walk around this area with lots to see. Sometimes special events anchor boats or are hosted in the green space area. It's really nice to come here in the summer time. In the winter time, they also allow skating at the pond as well. Very versatile for lots of different events hosted at the Harbourfront Centre. Their current outdoor concert venue is closed temporarily for renovations!

Great place to walk and so many events and stuff happening. If you want to always see something new or feel the heartbeat of a city, keep walking here. But sometimes there's too many people to enjoy anything but I guess it can't be avoided..

Usually a great place for walks and for spending some leisure time.. But as soon as the weather gets nicer, hoards of people flock to this place and while that's okay, the amount of trash that's thrown around on the sidewalk as well as in the lake is disgusting and infuriating! Like, seriously? Do you think you're not gonna come again and do you think you'd be sitting there again if everyone does that? Time to be considerate, people!! Nobody likes sitting at trashy and stinky places! Keep it clean. Please! For yourself and for everyone else.. Peace out! ☮️✌️

Very scenic view and beautiful lakefront for a walk 👌🏻🥂🤩

Loved Skating, Though most places were closed due to Christmas, yet, there was enough crowd to make it feel like Christmas 🎄

Made a special trip to Harbourfront Centre for the outdoor Nordic Lights displays. There are 6 in total and accessible untill 11 pm. This is an multimedia display of lights, with some music and interactive elements. Worth a visit but note there was no where to warm up so be sure and dress for the weather. Definitely many Instagramable moments.

A wonderful place to visit with family. Many food joints. A nice place to hangout with friends. Amesteram and other bars around for some good beers and cheers. Lot's of boats around. Scenic place.

Good place to spend time with your family. Beach front, kayaking, cycling, walking, ferry ride and many others. Sunset view, walkable to downtown and lots of food options.

The Center Waterfront, also known as Harbourfront is a must see for anyone venturing around Toronto's waterfront. The area is a mix of restaurants, skating rink during winter, concert and performance venue during summer and has some of the most striking views of Toronto Islands and the inner harbor or Lake Ontario. If you're lucky, you can experience the moon rising from the Port Lands and every few minutes a plane landing or taking off from Billy Bishop Airport. I was lucky enough to grab a few snaps of the frozen lake with -30 Celsius real feel temp outside. If you love the city or nature, you'll definitely enjoy this spot or even a walk on the famous boardwalk is definitely worth the trip downtown.

Harbourfront’s Skating rink is nestled along the beautiful shoreline of Lake Ontario. The view is absolutely astonishing. I recently visited on a mild and sunny day; it was an amazing experience! The ice is well maintained, the space is well laid out, & there is plenty to see around the area. If you are looking to rent skates make sure the rental shop is open as it was not open when I was there. Be sure to check it out asap as the last day of skating this season is Sunday February 27th.

I went here to see Nordic Lights which had interactive light show... Though there were just couple of exhibits I found them to be interesting. This place even has beautiful ice rink for skating.

Fun place to spend a day. On the Lake and daily activities. Quite a few party boats. Access to Toronto Islands by ferries or water taxi. Original and traditional Canadian Snack BEAVER TAILS. A must try. Yummy.

Lit place as always. I miss coming here with my wife. Always a lively environment. You need to come for a walk here if you haven't between 9-11 pm. August full month. You will not regret it.

Harbourfront Centre is one of my favourite place during summer. Every summer weekend local artists performs and many free concerts to enjoy. You can enjoy local street food like Beaver tail, Poutine, hotdogs, beautiful water front patios and many varieties of local shops from many different countries. Love the place and vibe. Recently we enjoyed Selena writers concert over the Canada day weekend.

Perfect spot to sit, relax and unwind. Best suited for long walks along the harbour. Love the restaurants and patios along the harbour as well.

Nice place to go for a walk. Also you have entertainment all over the place. Check the Amsterdam Brewer house, good place to grab a byte and drink some chill beers

Exceptionally soothing to break your stress cycle. This is the place with many water taxis to get to the Toronto island. One can easily spend a day to relax during the weekend

Nice community place. Lots of activities in the evening over the weekend. Excellent place for morning waterfront walk. Lot of nice sitting places... Few nice gardens around... Best place if you like to read books or listen to music with headphones on with a cup of coffee
