Paddleboard Eco Tour in Toronto Islands, Canada
Overview
Toronto Island is the only island chain in Western Lake Ontario, has a diverse collection of plants and wildlife, and holds deep history dating back to the first native American people. Did you know the location for Toronto, then called York, was chosen due to the prime natural harbour created by the Toronto Island, then a peninsula. Wards and Algonquin Island are some of the oldest neighborhoods in the city and some of their ancestors are still here today.
