Hanlan's Point Beach

Toronto Island is one of the city’s best assets, a beautiful stretch of land past the mainland southern tip in Lake Ontario. And what better way to celebrate the bountiful outdoors than at Canada’s only official nude beach? Hanlan’s Point Beach offers a secluded, one-kilometer strip of sand that, in 2002, became legally “clothing optional”, and is now popular among nudists, queer folk and sunbathers who hate tan lines. When you’re done, you can put your clothes back on to visit the rest of the islands, including various cafes and plenty of bike paths.
