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.
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.
Centreville Amusement Park is a major attraction on Centre Island, operating daily during summer months from 10:30 AM to 8 PM on weekends. The park features family-friendly rides including bumper boats, antique cars, a mini roller coaster, and the famous swan boats. Entry to the park is free, but individual ride tickets or day passes can be purchased on-site or online.
Ferry maintenance and fleet management ensure reliable service throughout the operating season. The Toronto Transit Commission oversees ferry operations with a fleet of five vessels, including the heritage vessel Trillium for special occasions. Regular maintenance schedules may occasionally affect service, with advance notice provided to passengers.
Group bookings and special arrangements are available for larger parties visiting Toronto Islands.

Historical significance of Toronto Island ferries dates back to 1833 with the first crossing by “Sir John of the Peninsula.” The Toronto Ferry Company operated services until 1926 when the City of Toronto purchased the fleet.
