Village by the Beach

Step back in time with a self-guided tour through the historic Beaches neighbourhood, where the echoes of early Toronto resort life are still visible in the streetscapes and shoreline. Starting at Coxwell and Eastern, this walk uncovers the amusement parks, sailing clubs, and summer cottages that once made this stretch of the city a beloved getaway. It's a surprisingly rich history lesson hiding in plain sight — and a perfect excuse to end up at the water. Perfect for after work — drop in solo or bring a friend. No experience necessary.
