Hanlan's Point Beach
Toronto, ON
Hanlan's Point, the most westerly of the three main islands that make up the Toronto Island Park, is the most "green" and probably the least busy, though you'll find it well-serviced. It has a baseball diamond, beach - including a clothing optional beach - bike trail, changeroom, drinking fountain, firepits, the Gibraltar Point Lighthouse, outdoor tennis courts, outdoor volleyball (more about sports activities), fast-food outlet (more about restaurants on the island), 12 picnic sites, and washrooms. A 1 kilometre-long part of the beach was officially recognized by the city in 2002 as being clothing optional and is a mecca for gay sunbathers.
