Cherry Beach
Cherry Beach is Toronto's in-city kiteboarding spot on Lake Ontario, a small beach with shallow-to-deep water right by the downtown skyline. It draws a large local after-work crowd through the April-to-November freshwater season and is one of the most accessible urban launches on the Great Lakes.
