Toronto Islands

The ferry trip from Queen's Quay Terminal to the Toronto Islands (about a kilometer offshore) is the prelude to a thoroughly enjoyable outing. There are lovely walks on the islands, and the opportunity for rowing, sailing, swimming, etc. or simply to relax. One or two marinas and the odd cluster of weekend homes bring a touch of variety to the scene. In summer the islands are the venue for numerous open-air events.

In favorable visibility there is a stunning view of the Toronto skyline.
