Yesterday evening was my first experience at Cherry Beach. How I've stayed away, as a dog-owner and a downtown swimming evangelist, for so long is beyond me. You just hop on your bike and head due south on Parliament. I'm in Cabbagetown, so this is hella convenient pour moi.
If you are transferring from the TTC there is a Cherry St bus that leaves from Union Station. They're really making it easy for us, folks.
It's a beautiful sprawling beach, much bigger than I had imagined with lifeguards and washrooms.
PEPPER POINTS: For the dog park. I know I mentioned it, but a leash-less dog park by a beach? The best!
PEPPER'S PISSED: Not much by way of snack-grabbing, pack a picnic.
