  • One of the best places to go for a walk on a good day. Breezy and beautiful view of the lake. Perfect for viewing the sunset. Lots of people taking their pets for a stroll, others come for jogging along the lake. You can have a picnic on one of the many benches.
  • Nice community place. Lots of activities in the evening over the weekend. Excellent place for morning waterfront walk. Lot of nice sitting places... Few nice gardens around... Best place if you like to read books or listen to music with headphones on with a cup of coffee
  • This place is gorgeous! Right beside the lake, there's plenty park seats with outlet plugs to charge your electric vehicle. My buddies and I come down here with our electric unicycles to enjoy the sunny weather. Fantastic! Stay safe out there people and please be kind to one another!
  • Perfect place to capture sunset. Awesome feeling and calmness this place brings to your heart. Long walkway along the side of sea, good and clean sitting arrangements. Surrounded with multiple food stalls to fill your appetite on the way. Facilitated with water taxi and wide sight billy bishop airport runway.
  • I’m coming here to enjoy a lakeside boardwalk (without any board) view. Walking there is considered a good exercise from start to finish. On the one side, you can see a grand view of Lake Ontario. The other is a cityscape of Toronto metropolis. You will never got lost as of the landmark CNTower erected to the sky seen at any spot you are. I plan to visit this place every time I come to Toronto.
