Top 10 Things to do in Toronto Islands, Canada

May 20, 2022 Madelene Haan

We've heard Toronto described as "New York City run by the Swiss," and it's true—you can find world-class theater, shopping and restaurants here, but the sidewalks are clean and the people are friendly. The best place to start is literally at the top—the CN Tower, the tallest freestanding structure in the Western Hemisphere.

Toronto Island Walking Tours

Get away from it all. Join us for a 1.5 hour walking tour of the unique and charming residential community on Toronto Island, only a 12-minute ferry ride from downtown Toronto. As two longtime residents, we can tell you what it's really like to live year round in the middle of an 525-acre park with no stores or cars. We'll show you cottage-like homes, lush gardens ad beautiful green spaces. Our tour is led by both Susan and Linda, longtime Island residents and costs $25. The pace is leisurely and terrain is flat. Sign up on Eventbrite or go to our website at walkwardsisland.com We meet you at the white gazebo at the ferry docks on Wards Island. Enjoy a coffee or snack/meal before or after our tour at the Island Cafe or Riviera Cafe. We look forward to greeting you and showing you our community!

This was by far the best experience of my Toronto trip: riding bikes around a beautiful island, accessible by ferry.

Hanlan's Point Beach

Reviewed By XamatTomax - Fort Wayne, United States

Once the ferry arrived, I made my way to the beach. It wasn’t too long of a hike. Since the weather was nice, plenty of people had flocked to Hanlon Point. When you’re walking down the foot path, you’ll notice signs indication that it’s a clothing optional beach. To left is where sunbathers choose to go topless or nude. To the right is the traditional swimsuit side. During this particular visit, I choose to do the clothing optional side. For me, it was sort of a when in Rome kind of thing. The beach itself was very nice and kept up. Walking around the island is very relaxing and much slower paced compared to the hustle of Toronto. You could easily spend all day here
