    Toronto islands is a view to behold. From parks to fancy restaurants you can find ever here. From the ferry ride starting point you can select which point you want to go to and then can board the ferry accordingly. The sunsets look surreal at the beach.

    Large grass field with lots of shade from mature trees and a number of picnic sites. Picnic sites can be reserved through the City of Toronto website. There are three public washrooms and two drinking fountains within a 10 minute walk. One of Toronto's oldest parks, Hanlan's Point Park dates back to the 1880s and covers the northern half of the west side of Centre Island. The park was originally home to cottages (1870s-1950s) and Hanlan's Point Amusement Park "Canada's Coney Island" (1880-1926). The park is adjacent to Hanlan's Point Beach, a clothing-optional beach and Canada's oldest queer space.

    A little spooky but with a renovation it could become a main attraction of the Islands. The vivid red reassembles the Canadian spirit of sailing and the outdoors. If you’re not using a bike, expect a long walk both from centre and wards island. Overall, it is spooky on its own way but Toronto’s heritage.

    Toronto Island Park, particularly Hanlan's Point, is a serene getaway with beautiful beaches, lush parks, and panoramic city views. It's perfect for leisurely walks, beach relaxation, and enjoying outdoor activities in a picturesque, tranquil setting away from the city bustle.

    Wir waren während unsres Aufenhtaltes in Toronto natürlich auch auf den Toronto Islands gewesen. Und was soll ich sagen? Es war wirklich eine sehr schöne Abwechslung zum täglichen Trubel in Downtown. Es gibt hier riesige Grünflächen und Wälder zum entspannten spazieren. Im Sommer laden auch mehrere Sandstrände zum Baden und Sonnen ein. Wir für unseren Teil hatten 4 Stunden gebraucht um vom einen Ende zum anderen zu laufen und bei weiten noch nicht alles gesehen. Zum Entspannen und die Seele baumeln zu lassen ist dieser Ort wirklich super geeignet. Für Kinder gibt es hier sogar einen kleinen Freizeitpark. Des Weiteren gibt es hier auch mehrere orte, von denen aus man einen super Blick auf die Skyline von Toronto hat.

    Sunshine Centre at Ward Island is great place to do activities outdoor, meeting old and new members and be acqauinted with visitors both young and old (Senior) like me...all 3 divided Islands within the Toronto Bay are for choosing to go as permitted to do so.

    Went during the off season so it was a little lackluster, also times on the website for departure were off

  • 5/5 Mohammad Shafayet I. 3 years ago on Google • 138 reviews
    One of the most picturesque points in Toronto to watch the Toronto skyline views. A nice ferry ride along with some breeze is what you need for a weekend gateway. Ample space for picnic, bbq, hangouts etc. People tends to follow the social distancing rule as well. Sanitization is placed around every other corner as well. Overall, the most happening place in Toronto in my POV.

    I miss the beach. This is the closest thing to a beach in Toronto. Enjoy. Lots to do. Nice park. Try to bring food and lots of water. Sunblock and bugs spray. They have subway sandwich restaurant. Some other little booth for stuff. Animals and stuff like little zoo.. Fun place to adults and kids. Families and dates.. I would really recommend get the ferry tickets online otherwise wait in line atleast 30 to 40 min... big lines.. they are fast but so so so many people...

    Docked at the wall at Hanlans Point...the odour from Cormorants was disgusting..Several power outlets were broken...and the dock masters office no longer stocks ice...you have to dinghy or bike over to the Marina .All for $2.00/ft...What a far cry from its past ...Is this progress??
