Ward's Island Neighbourhood
Things To Do

Centre Island is a major tourist attraction and is also well-liked by locals. In the summer it can get very crowded. Take the ferry boat to Wards Island instead. Bear to the left after leaving the boat and you will find a tiny neighbourhood of residents. There is an array of odd houses, some well kept and some dilapidated.

This is where people living nearby go to walk their dogs, run, or cycle throughout the day. It's also a great place to relax, catch some rays, and people watch.

This park is like the city's backyard all summer long. There is sun and shade, bike paths, tennis, baseball, skating, an off-leash dog park, and plenty of space to picnic. On hot days you will see hundreds of locals enjoying the fresh air, drinking, eating, drumming, slack-lining, and heaven knows what else. The place is full of life.

The perfect place for families to walk with their children and pets and enjoy the beauty of Lake Ontario. In the summer the lake is warm enough for swimming and the fine beach sand is great for kids. There is also an off-leash park to allow dogs to run freely in a contained area. A paved bicycle trail runs parallel to The Boardwalk.

Colorful and robust representation of Toronto's street art scene in a couple blocks of alleys right in the heart of downtown. The art is frequently changing so come back multiple times to see what's different! Can easily catch an artist in residence here working on a new piece of art. Drake himself even dropped his album views right here.

CN Tower

Overrun on busy days, overpriced everyday, overwhelming views, day or night make up for it all. It is the type of place which we love to hate as a local. The massive structure is part of our daily life, at 550 metres tall that is inevitable.
