Lake Ontario's Absolute Essentials

Lake Ontario's shoreline connects major cultural hubs like Toronto, Kingston, and Rochester. This collection features the Royal Ontario Museum’s vast natural history collections and the historic 19th-century Fort Henry. Explore the tranquil Toronto Islands via the Jack Layton Ferry Terminal or visit the former Kingston Penitentiary for a glimpse into Canada's oldest maximum-security prison. Natural highlights include the sandy dunes of Southwick Beach State Park and boat tours through the Thousand Islands archipelago at the lake's eastern outlet.
