The Toronto Island ferry service operates year-round connecting downtown Toronto to the beautiful Toronto Islands in Lake Ontario. The City of Toronto operates this essential transportation link from the Jack Layton Ferry Terminal at the foot of Bay Street to three distinct island destinations.

Toronto Island beaches offer four distinct swimming areas along the islands’ southern shores.

Gibraltar Point Beach sits between Centre and Hanlan’s Point, while Ward’s Island Beach offers a quieter alternative on the eastern shore.
Parking near the ferry terminal is limited and expensive, making public transit the recommended transportation method.
