After the curtains close, take some time to experience the Entertainment District’s other arts offerings. Beyond the performing arts, fine art and film add colour to the area. Since 1979, Gallery 44 has focused on contemporary photography and exhibiting emerging artists.

Tour around the islands after your flight from St. John’s to Toronto
Toronto Islands
When your flight from St. John’s to Toronto lands at Pearson or Billy Bishop, head to the ferry docks for a scenic ferry ride across the harbour to reach the beautiful Toronto Islands.
Connected via boardwalks, paths, and bridges, three Toronto Islands are easily traversed on foot. Island hop between Centre Island, Algonquin Island, and Ward’s Island as you stroll through this natural Toronto haven.
Explore the Toronto Island’s shoreline on the system of piers and boardwalks that run along the lake. Away from waves and sand, the interiors of the islands are mostly wooded, with parkland throughout. From the large Toronto Island Park, to the woods surrounding Gibraltar Point Lighthouse, a good deal of greenery covers the Islands.
After exploring the Toronto Islands on foot, find that the real fun starts in the water. With a grand tour of the Islands’ beach system, you can get some sand between your toes as you take in different angles of the Toronto skyline. Get your swimsuit ready for Ward’s Island Beach and Centre Island Beach for a refreshing splash in the water.
Once you’re dried off from your dip in the lake, head to Gibraltar Point to visit another of the Islands’ points of interest. The Gibraltar Point Lighthouse dates back to 1808 and is the oldest standing lighthouse on the Great Lakes, but the history of this lighthouse is far from smooth sailing. The lighthouse’s first keeper reportedly met a grisly end in 1815, leading to the site’s haunted reputation.
For exploring beyond the scenery, head to Far Enough Farm to meet a variety of exotic birds and familiar farmyard animals in a rural setting. For something (slightly) more fast paced, the rides of the whimsical Centreville Amusement Park offer family-friendly fun.
With views of the city and a variety of attractions, the Toronto Islands are your scenic escape within the city when you book flights from St. John’s to Toronto landing at Pearson or Billy Bishop.
