FAQ

Ferry Toronto

Ferry accessibility ensures all visitors can enjoy Toronto Island regardless of mobility needs. The modern ferry fleet includes wheelchair-accessible vessels with elevators and designated spaces for mobility devices. Island facilities including washrooms, pathways, and major attractions are designed to accommodate visitors with disabilities.

Toronto Island Park encompasses the entire island chain and offers diverse recreational opportunities beyond the ferry ride. Visitors can enjoy disc golf, tennis, baseball, soccer, and numerous picnic areas with BBQ facilities. The park operates year-round with seasonal variations in available facilities and services.

Parking near the ferry terminal is limited and expensive, making public transit the recommended transportation method. Several paid parking lots operate in the area, but spaces fill quickly during peak periods. The terminal’s proximity to Union Station and streetcar connections makes public transit both convenient and cost-effective for ferry passengers.

Hanlan’s Point ferry provides access to the westernmost island, known for its recreational facilities and natural beauty. This island features tennis courts, volleyball courts, a baseball diamond, and extensive green spaces perfect for picnics and gatherings. Hanlan’s Point is also home to Toronto’s only clothing-optional beach and the historic Gibraltar Point Lighthouse.

The Jack Layton Ferry Terminal is conveniently located at 9 Queens Quay West and is easily accessible by public transit. The 509 and 510 streetcars provide direct connections from Union Station to the terminal, making it unnecessary to drive and deal with expensive downtown parking. The terminal features washrooms, ticket machines, and separate lines for pre-purchased ticket holders.

Emergency services and safety protocols ensure visitor security on both ferries and islands. Toronto Fire Services maintains a station on Ward’s Island, and emergency medical services are available year-round. Ferry vessels are equipped with modern safety equipment and experienced crews trained in emergency response procedures.

Special events ferry schedules accommodate major attractions and seasonal celebrations on Toronto Islands. Holiday schedules operate during statutory holidays with modified departure times. Concert series, festivals, and special events may require additional ferry service or extended operating hours to serve increased visitor demand.

Future developments for Toronto Island ferry service include fleet modernization and terminal improvements. The transition to electric ferries represents a significant investment in sustainable transportation. Terminal renovations by Waterfront Toronto will enhance passenger experience and improve accessibility for all visitors to Toronto’s island paradise.

Toronto Islands consist of 15 interconnected islands spanning approximately 5 kilometers from Ward’s Island in the east to Hanlan’s Point in the west. The three main destinations served by the ferry are Centre Island, Ward’s Island, and Hanlan’s Point, each offering distinct attractions and experiences. All islands are connected by pathways and bridges, allowing visitors to explore multiple areas during their visit.

Adult tickets cost $9.11, with reduced rates for seniors and students at $5.86, children under 14 at $4.29, and free passage for children under 2.

Winter schedules are reduced, with service to Centre Island and Hanlan’s Point typically suspended, while Ward’s Island maintains year-round service for residents.
