This area is mainly for families.There are loads of things for them to do eg waxworks,big wheel,Dracula ride etc.There are tourist shops mostly selling the same things like t shirts ,key rings,hats etc.The restaurants are noisy and the menus are burgers and chips,pasta,salad,pizza etc.We did have salmon and prawns with noodles which was healthy but there is nowhere else to eat which is is scenic or quiet nearby which was disappointing.Loads of ice-cream places but this is pricey in Canada as is the food so a lot of people and families get carry outs
It is a large area and something to look at in the evening but not to our taste.
Woodbine Beach

Cycled here from downtown.Not a pleasant cycle as industrial but cycle paths are mapped and easy to follow.Only one road with no cycle paths.
Busy beach with loads of volleyball going on.Good eating places.Very busy with families and lifeguards are strict.Good boardwalk which goes for miles.
Nice to see where and what the locals do.
Enjoyed our visit
Toronto Island Park

Visited here 3 times in a week.The first time we walked and swam.Second time we took bikes over from our hotel and cycled the whole island and had a swim.Third time we canoed and had a swim.
Plenty to do and see.Loads of places to eat.Amusement park and animals for kids.Besutiful marinas and rustic homes.Picnic areas and cycles,canoes and kayaks for hire.A tour train is also available.Lifeguards on the beaches.
These islands are so well kept and transport over very organised.9.11 Canadian dollars return.Great value so be prepared for very busy boats especially on holidays.Good for all ages

Loved every visit.
