Reaching Toronto’s world-famous gay beach, at Hanlan’s Point in the Toronto Islands, is quite simple – in fact, from the bustle of the city’s downtown Financial District, you’re a mere half-hour or so from this scenic beach overlooking Lake Ontario, where nudity is officially sanctioned. Just bear in mind that public sex is illegal, so don’t confuse Hanlan’s Point with an outdoor bathhouse. Also, while the beach here has a strong gay following, it welcomes all kinds and isn’t specifically GLBT.
