A great natural retreat, I recommend beach 4 but be patient getting there. When you had enough wilderness, you can take in some history at Discovery Harbour, have dinner at the Captain's Table and see a show at the King's Wharf Theatre.
Somewhere so close, where you can feel so far. Oh yeah, and I saw fireflies and turtles. 'Nuff said...
I still don't trust the water at the beach, but it's great to just go for the whole day and chill out. Bring a soccer ball, a tent, and this many joints, and you may never want to come home. The ferry rides are loads of fun too, despite the fact that it only takes a few minutes to get there.
within an hour-and-a-half you can be in the centre of Mennonite country - plenty of fresh air, beautiful farms, and horses and buggies. and the market is full of tasty treats and handicrafts produced using old-fashioned methods. it's a fun diversion for a day.
it's a really beautiful spot, with gorgeous hiking, a string of interconnected beaches with beautiful clean water and sandbars that let you walk out in the lake forever. the campsites are really large, well-treed and private. you can rent canoes as well. great even as a day trip.
wonderfull firework all Family enjoy
It is such a great park full of nice trails and some great trees where to have a picnic and read a good book under.
It has cheesey tourist attractions, restaurants and the cassino.

Love seeing the Toronto downtown buildings from the ferry. It's also relaxing walking/biking around the island.
