Ward's Island Beach is a part of the small community on the Ward’s Island and can be reached by taking the Ward’s Island ferry at Queens Quay and Bay Street. This hidden gem is far less touristy than the park at Centre Island. Ward's Beach is somewhat protected by the Leslie Split, so its water is calm and ideal for swimming. Nevertheless, there is just enough wind for wind boards and kites. Ward's Beach is the place to hunt for beach glass as the current brings it to the shore. Ward's Island beach is a Blue Flag beach.
