Take the ferry over to Toronto Island and feel like you're in a different world. Beaches (one is a nude beach!), carnival rides, restaurants. You can rent paddle boards and (I think) even kayaks. Rent a bike and tour around the island + see the historic cottages that are inhabited based on a lottery process!
