Review & FAQ:
Cherry Beach is a lakeside park located at the end of Cherry Street south of Unwin Avenue in Toronto on the city’s outer harbor east of the Eastern Gap. The park, which was originally called Clarke Beach Park, was connected until 1852 to Toronto Islands as part of the peninsula. It was also known as Fisherman's Island. Although it is located at the tip of Toronto's once heavily industrial Port Lands area, Cherry Beach has always been a popular gathering spot. There is no proper picnic area and no boardwalk, and a big part of the surrounding area is marshland or former factory grounds. After recent improvements, the park now has a paved entranceway, a washroom, and change rooms. Kite boarders can be often seen at the west side of the beach, and there is an off-leash dog area.
