What visitors say

Paddle Pirates' Marie Curtis Beach location rents boats right from the sand at the west end of Toronto's waterfront. Reviewers mention calm water, good scenery and a relaxed couple of hours on the lake.

Booking online is easy, and staff give a short how-to before you head out, which first-timers appreciated. Equipment is in good condition, and life jackets, dry bags and phone cases are provided. Kayaks, canoes and water bikes are all on offer, and a group of four found a canoe worked well for them.

It's a good pick for beginners, family outings and small groups. One guest took their dad out for Father's Day, and several say they'd come back.

Every review is five stars. The one practical note is parking, which can be hard to find depending on the time of day.
