One of the two ways to get to the Toronto Island. And probably the more reasonable (your alternative is getting a water taxi). Don't say that you haven't been warned - it gets pretty busy, but the ferries come often so you don't have to wait too too long. My advice would be to go to Ward Island first because the line is a lot shorter. One downside is that they only accept CASH. For a Credit Card person, this posed a problem. Thankfully my friend had some cash in her wallet and we were able to buy three tickets.
Unless there's a bridge option, I'll be using the Ferry to get to the Islands.
Good for: out-of-towners, weekending
