Toronto’s gay beach, at Hanlan’s Point in the scenic Toronto Islands, overlooks calm Lake Ontario and draws considerable crowds on warm days. This is one of the most popular – and famous – clothing-optional beaches in North America, and certainly one of the best gay beaches in Canada. Hanlan’s Point is without significant amenities; however, a paved walking path leads to Centre Island, with its numerous amusements, restaurants and snack bars, and additional ferry service back to the city.
