Top Beaches in Ontario

Check the weather before heading out. I got caught in a rain shower because I didn’t think to check ahead. Having a waterproof cover or small umbrella on hand could’ve saved my day!

If you're planning to rent gear, like kayaks or paddleboards, book ahead! I didn’t and ended up waiting a long time, which cut into my fun time at the beach.

My advice is to pack a blanket or mat. The sand can get pretty hot, especially in the afternoon. I burnt my feet walking around in the middle of the day!

I recommend taking the ferry from downtown; it’s super scenic and saves you the hassle of traffic. Just make sure to get there by 10 AM to avoid long lines.

I suggest going just before sunset, around 7:30 PM. The views are stunning and you can get some great photos without the crowds.
