Don‘t overlook Toronto Islands in vacation plans hy not escape to the NJ islands â€" the Toronto * Islands â€" for a day filled with unique experiences? We often forget that Toronto is a special place â€" not many major cities can boast about having 625 acres of peaceful parkland located just a short ferry boat ride away. You can spend a perfect summer day exploring the scenic side of the Toronto Islands and still be home before the sun sets. The major islands are Centre Island, Hanlan‘s Point, and Ward‘s Island, each with its own points of interest. The ferry boats stop at each of these islands. The main action takes place on Centre Island, where Centreville is situated. This 7 hectare amusement park has over 30 rides and attractions. Just adjacent to Centreville is the Far Enough Farm with cows, sheep, horses, and rabbits. There is also a wading pool and miniature golf nearby.
