Take the tram eastbound and you will arrive there in 35 minutes. It has a nice boardwalk, sandy beaches, and a neighbourhood vibe. Walk a few blocks north of there and there will be hip bars and restaurants to enjoy.

Strolling through the neighborhood’s brick-paved pedestrian streets, visitors might feel as if they’ve been transported to Victorian-era Canada—the craftspeople who restored the old structures kept true to the original construction materials as much as possible. Great coffee, chocolate shops, and restaurants to enjoy!

Take the ferry to Centre Island. It's an enjoyable 30-minute ride across lake Ontario. The island is nice to have a picnic, go for a walk, rent bikes, or canoes, go for a swim, and have lunch at the local restaurant.
