Nature and Parks in Toronto

"Formerly an industrial area along the waterfront of Lake Ontario, Sugar Beach Park is one of Toronto’s urban beaches. Although you can’t swim at this beach, the city has provided lounge chairs and iconic pink umbrellas, making it a great spot to claim a patch of sand for some reading, hangouts with friends, or to watch boats go by.Christie Pits Park — Accessible by subway, this small park is a hub of activity because of its residential location. Christie Pits Park has a free public swimming pool, baseball diamond, children’s park, and, in the wintertime, a skating rink. This park is famous for its summer film program, the Christie Pits Film Festival. On Sunday evenings, locals gather to watch a themed film program." - MATADOR_NETWORK

We love coming here, whether to watch the airshow on Labour Day weekend, watching doggie athletes at the Waterfront Festival, or visiting the splash pad to cool down, this location never disappoints for the whole family. Living a block away, we don't come as frequently as we should, but the views always make me vow to visit more.

It's not the actual beach, but you will definitely love the place. Such an amazing view, water sounds, and flying birds in the sky. Perfect spot for evening walk. You can sit and enjoy the vibes with loved ones.

I absolutely love this space. Love being by the water no matter what the season. Great space for walking or looking out at the water, and more.

Sugar Beach is a park that is walking distance to the city centre but is far enough that you don’t hear much of the traffic noises. There are beach chairs to sit on under iconic pink beach umbrellas. The sand isn’t the best as people do throw out trash and cigarette butts, but it’s nice enough to be able to take your shoes off and feel the warm sand between your toes. It is not too busy on weekdays with most people just lounging around relaxing or trying to get a sun tan. It’s a great place to relax and escape from the busyness of the city.

This place has a very tiny beach with seats and tables that faves a warehouse but also water. When you take the path further it leads you into the trees and a great view to watch boats. The nice thing is that it’s right by the city but the sad thing is that it’s quite small. This is a place you can stop and enjoy for a few moments but not somewhere you wanna stay for hours. There are a lot of students that walk through the area and it is pretty busy. There are benches further down by the water and lots of trees to offer shade. even though this place is small I enjoyed a moment of serenity and nature! The path after the beach is quite photo worthy!

Sugar Beach Park with a bunch of iconic pink umbrellas, sand and rest area with lounge chairs scattered throughout the beach. There's also walkway areas that connects you to the new East Bayfront community as well. It's a pretty nice walk along the waterfront with cyclists and walkers. Or even dine at the nearby Against the Grain to see pedestrians walk by. Depending on the time of the year, you can also hear Edge 102.1's Sugar Beach Sessions as well for some live music while relaxing or walking by the park. Very nice area to have a nice walk along the waterfront!

A perfect spot to spend time with your loved ones. Pink shades with white chairs and sand create a mesmerizing ambience. Quite happening during weekends daytime. The best thing is that it's really clean and pets are not allowed unleashed. Kids love playing with sand here.
