Review:

Just a 13-minute ferry ride from downtown, the Toronto Islands are a collection of 15 interconnected islands located on Lake Ontario. Spanning a little over three miles from Hanlan’s Point to Ward’s Island it’s easy for visitors to walk from one end of the isle to the other via the pathways and bridges. The island offers a wealth of outdoor recreation activities for all ages including kayak, canoe, and kayak rentals as well as nature paths, grassy areas for picnicking, sports facilities, and a theatre. They also feature a 150-year-old community with 600 natives who live in quaint cottages year-round, a 200-year-old lighthouse, an artist’s retreat, trout pond, pier, boardwalk, restaurants, and formal gardens.
