Best Beach in Vaughan

"Beautiful Bluffer’s Park is one of eleven parks along 15 kilometers of the Scarborough Bluffs, the towering 20-story white cliffs that soar above the park and that make this an ultra-scenic spot to hang out. Bluffer’s Park is also where you’ll find one of the best beaches in Toronto, as well as picnic areas, walking trails, photo-worthy lookouts, a boat launch and a full-service restaurant and bar at Bluffer's Park Marina. Best For: Swimmers; Scenic Walks"

"Located in Scarborough, about a 30-min drive from downtown Toronto, Bluffer’s Park is part of the Scarborough Bluffs, a geologic formation that stretches 15km along the shores of Lake Ontario. There are eleven parks found within the Scarborough Bluffs but Bluffer’s Park is one of the most popular spots for locals and visitors alike. Situated right at the foot of the Bluffs, the park offers walking trails, lookout points and picnic and beach areas."

"Bluffer’s Park Beach has a wide variety of available facilities and activities including marinas, parklands, swimming, fishing, and picnic areas. You can also enjoy the geographical feature “the bluffs.”. Parking is available."

"Located next to Kew-Balmy Beach, Woodbine Beach is another popular east end stretch of sand where you’ll find three kilometres of shoreline for some serious fun in the sun. In addition to the wide, sandy waterfront ideal for swimming, Woodbine Beach Park also offers access to the Ashbridges Bay and Martin Goodman trails, Donald D. Summerville Outdoor Olympic Pool, playground, outdoor fitness equipment, beach volleyball courts and a bathing station with a patio, change rooms, water bottle filling station and showers."

"A perfect spot for swimming, the gorgeous Woodbine beach is located close to the Kew-Balmy beach and has a wide range of activities for you to try!. In addition to the powder-white sand and soothing waves, you also have access to a playground, beach volleyball courts, Martin Goodman trails and Ashbridges Bay, and a bathing station with a patio with changing rooms too!. If it’s a beach outing you’re looking for, this is surely one of the best beaches near Toronto, Canada!"

"Head to the eastern shores of Toronto’s stunning waterfront and splash in the waters at Woodbine Beach. This urban beach is located near a residential area and features a playground, volleyball nets and miles of sandy waterfront ideal for creating sandcastles under the sun. There is a nearby outdoor pool with changing rooms, showers and a water bottle filling station to keep you hydrated."

"Although not a certified eco-friendly beach, water levels at Sunnyside Beach near Lakeshore Boulevard are tested daily so you will know if it’s safe to swim here and if the water meets provincially established safety standards. It’s typically not too busy here, which makes it a grandiose destination. If you go exploring, you will likely notice cyclists and rollerbladers zooming along the nearby Martin Goodman Trail, which is part of the Waterfront Trail System."

"Check the water report before you decide to swim at Sunnyside (it can be iffy at times), but if you want a sparse area to spread out, this may be the beach for you. Sunnyside doesn’t get as packed as other beaches in the area and is great for reading a book, listening to the water, or taking a beach nap."

"One of the first things you notice about Sunnyside Beach is the Sunnyside Bathing Pavilion which was built in 1922 with art deco features. The beautiful pavilion sets the stage for a beach trip with a nostalgic vibe. The beach is rarely crowded despite its downtown location, making it a nice getaway."

"For a rather freeing beach day, you’ll want to head to Hanlan’s Point Beach, a clothing optional area perfect for nudists or anyone looking to bare it all under the sun. Found on the western shores of the Toronto Islands, you’ll need to board the ferry to get here. Expect a bike trail, fire pit, volleyball and tennis courts, and a lighthouse to keep you entertained all day long."

"Known best for its clothing optional area, Hanlan's Point also has a side for the less adventurous, even if it's generally far less populated than its nude-friendly neighbour. This is surely the most fun beach in Toronto, with some of the best sand around. People have flocked to Sunnyside to swim for well over a century."

"If you’re a GTA native or have been living in the area for a while, you probably know that Hanlan’s Point has a secret: there’s a nude section to this beach. But, if you don’t feel like bearing that post-quarantine body quite yet, there’s also a large expanse of beach that requires bathing suits."

"It is somehow is super relaxing and quiet while also being in the middle of a bustling waterfront. Sugar Beach has white sand and cute pink beach umbrellas with white wooden chairs that are very instagrammable. However, seating is limited so you might want to bring your own towel to lie on just in case!"

"Enjoy the pink umbrellas in all their cuteness at Sugar Beach. It’s definitely prettier (and warmer lolz) during the spring and summer, but you can come here all year-round if you want to. It would even be cute in the snow and make for some unique shots, if you’re looking for Toronto winter photo spots!"

"Located in the heart of downtown Toronto, you can’t swim at Sugar Beach, but it’s a great spot to spend the day relaxing outside. With pink umbrellas and white wooden chairs, Sugar Beach has a whole vibe that simply screams summertime!"

"What was once the Gibraltar Beach Sand Dunes is now a nice stretch of sandy shores between Centre Island and Hanlan’s Point on the Toronto Islands. This Blue Flag-certified beach is under the radar and is accessible from the main ferry to Centre Island or the Hanlan’s Point Ferry at the docks. The islands are actually connected, so you can walk from one to the other."

"Families flock to Centre Island Beach on the eastern shores of Toronto Island. Facing Lake Ontario, the area is accessible by ferry or water taxi. Despite being only fifteen minutes from downtown Toronto, you’ll feel like you’ve left town once you hit the sandy shores and clear blue water crashing against the shore (worry not, a rock breakwater is in place to keep kids safe)."

"The beach is located on the southern shore of Toronto Island Park, in an area also known as “Manitou Beach”. Centre Island Beach has very calm, shallow, and slightly warm waters because the rock breakwater was built to provide a barrier from the open lake. This beach is an ideal place for the entire family to go for a walk, swim, relax, picnic, and enjoy the scenery."

"*NOTE: Centreville Amusement Park and Far Enough Farm are closed in summer 2020. A day on Centre Island is a must for your summer bucket list. The beach is small but clean, with shallow water and a sandy floor—perfect for young children."

"Located at the mouth of the Rouge River at the east end of Lawrence Avenue, this beach is shared with the West Rouge Canoe Club. Near the beach is a marsh that provides a home to a variety of wildlife. Any time of the year, the picturesque scenery around Rouge Beach is calming and impressive."

"A little more of a drive from the city in Scarborough, Rouge Beach is worth the trip on a hot sunny day. Spend the day lounging on the sandy shores, get out in the water and rent a kayak or canoe, watch the sunset, or get lost in nature on the Rouge Marsh trail nearby."

"Another pretty Toronto brunch spot for my fellow pink lovers. Oretta is an Italian restaurant that doesn’t really serve up traditional brunch, so come hungry for their hearty brunch dishes. While I’m not too crazy about the food at Oretta, they’ve definitely got a gorgeous space worthy of your Instagram feed."

"Oretta is another popular restaurant on King West, with its Instagrammable pink art deco-style interior. It’s definitely one of the cutest and most Instagram-worthy restaurants in Toronto!. They serve up Italian eats, and there’s even non-traditional brunch with an Italian twist."

"An Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown, not to mention it’s PINK FEED GOALS!. This restaurant features an amazing colour pallet in their decor elements and unreal curved vaulted ceilings. The style is quirky, fun, pastel-filled and stunningly art-deco."

"The Libertine is an underground speakeasy-style lounge now operating from under a blinking tarot reader sign on Dundas West at Rusholme."

"Like an indoor skydiving chamber and a robot who would turn off the lights for us when we’re already in bed, there are a lot of things we’d buy if we won the lottery. Regular meals (and the airfare required) at Miku would also be on the list. Miku’s sushi mixes traditional Japanese preparation with local ingredients, and prominently features a blowtorch - their Aburi-style focuses on lightly flame-searing the fish to bring out the flavor."

"Miku pioneered aburi-style sushi in Canada — which, for the uninitiated, translates to 'flame-seared'. In practice, this means the fish is cooked over fire to create new textures and enhance flavour, searing it over binchotan (Japanese bamboo charcoal). The restaurant also has a signature secret sauce, known only by a handful of its chefs."
