Beautiful island about 30 minutes from Toronto. You can either take the big boat or the water taxis. From what someone told me the big boat is free or a few dollars. I took a water taxi and arrived in about 15 minutes but it cost $15 per person. Once on the island there is so much things to do. You can walk or bike the whole place. There are small towers to see, beaches, and playgrounds for kids. I biked around the island and took pictures of the Toronto skyline (which come out great). Highly recommend visiting this island on a sunny day.
This place is so beautiful. Enjoy the ferry ride. Its 9 $ for 1 person. A great getaway from Toronto. You guys can do picnic there as well. Don't forget to visit the mini zoo there. Whole of the place is so pretty and mesmerizing.
Beautiful place. You will get an amazing view of the Toronto skyline. It's mostly crowded on weekends. Expect long queues on weekends to and from the island. Better to book the ticket online in advance for the ferry.
Best experience 🩵🩵! To reach island you need to take ferry from harbour front which will cost u 12.50$ cash or 14$ with tax! They offer other option as well which is one hour round trip!! We took first option in which we went to the island and returned in public ⛴️ ferry!
While going on island the city-line looks amazing! There are plenty of parks and 🧺 picnic spots are availabile !
Public ferry comes at every40 minutes!

I had a lovely time at Center Island! Beautiful walking trails, plenty of cozy spaces. Perfect for a picnic, small family parties, time alone on the beach/ water front, hiking, and cycling. Don't miss the William Meany Maze and the beautiful kid friendly gardens. The bike rental place on the Island closes by 5pm so bring your own bike or rent from harborfront before getting on the ferry if you plan to go later in the day. Not too many options for food so bring yours if possible. Long wait lines for ferry but you can choose to take a water taxi which costs more. I'm definitely going back again!
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.

This is one of the best parks in town for a quick getaway trip. Easily accessible from the heart of downtown Toronto, It has a great view of the skyline, areas where you can watch the sunset, loads of picnic area, multilple beaches, bike rentals, and much more to do! It does get very crowded in summers. The view does not get old, though!
