    Very laid back clothing optional beach. Be respectful and you'll be fine. The newly opened beach further down from the original Hanlan's beach has become the new clothing optional spot. The older spot has more shade and better swimming than the newer beach, while the newer spot is more of a social gathering.

    Sugar Beach is incredibly photogenic with its white sand and pink umbrellas. It's amazing that a mega-city like Toronto has such a pretty beach at its center.

    Pretty, yes. Functional, not so much. You can’t swim from the beach, and if you visit, expect many people to be walking by taking photos.

    So, Sugar Beach is more of a photo-op than a spot to lounge shirtless. The choice is yours—do you want to be in front of the camera or behind it?

    A great place to escape from busy city. You may visit this place and relax a bit like other local people.

    Wonderful place too see ducks and a lovely view of the lakefront. Lots of greenery and you can set up for a picnic. Public washrooms available as well.

    Lovely dog beach with crystal clear waters. I would suggest water shoes to help walk around the rocks. Lots of kids and dogs running around. Highly recommend it!

    Cherry beach is great! Although the water is usually too cold to swim in it, it is great for kids and dogs to wade in and play in the sand. There are benches and picnic tables and the bus drops you right there.

    This is probably the best beach I've ever been to.

    I've been to 14 completely different beaches, and they all were special in their own way - but this beach is nothing short of magnificent. Never will you fret about a rogue surfboard in these stunning rollers.

    Beach fires (even small ones for cooking) are frowned upon and are also severely illegal. I'd say a sandwich is always a good choice...even if uncooked.

    Thank you for your wonder, Bloordale Beach. You bring a smile to my face.

    The beach is small but beautiful. One has to walk too much to get to the beach and there is a park nearby. It needs some cleaning definitely.
