“You don’t need to get on a plane to visit a great beach. Toronto has eight of them across the city,” said Councillor Michelle Holland. “So get out this summer and enjoy them. Beaches provide free recreation, relaxation, and a way to cool down during the warmer months.”

At Woodbine beach, swimmers can see improvements this year including an accessible washroom, an enlarged patio and a beach shower.
