Innisfil: Beaches, Market and a Variety of Activities

Beaches, Trails and Local Discoveries

Innisfil offers a variety of ways to spend your stay: swimming at the beaches, a five-kilometre trail, a seasonal market and activities at Town Square. Local history and a park with an observation platform add their own distinctive touches. When planning, you can choose whether to focus mainly on beach time, getting active or local discoveries.

Beaches with Different Features

Leonard’s Beach (10th Line Beach Park) offers swimming, sand and a playground. Bon Secours Beach (9th Line Park) also offers swimming and sand, along with open green spaces. The playground at Leonard’s Beach may be a consideration for families, while Bon Secours has a different focus, with its open green spaces.

Sierra’s Chair, a floating beach wheelchair (Mobi-Chair®), is located at Innisfil Beach Park. Residents and visitors can book it through the Active-Innisfil website. If a beach wheelchair is important for your trip, you can take this specific option into account.

Getting Active and Things to Do in Town

The Rotary Trail is five kilometres long and runs through the Town of Innisfil. It offers a different way to spend time in town than at the beaches or enjoying the activities at Town Square.

Innisfil Town Square has a 240-metre refrigerated skating trail. In warmer months, the same trail can be used for walking or in-line skating. This means Town Square offers different activities in different seasons. The trail is an option for travellers who would like to include skating or a walk or in-line skate in their stay.

Friday Harbour Resort offers canoe, kayak and stand-up paddleboard rentals. Those interested can choose between the three types of watercraft listed. They differ in their design and use; which one suits your stay depends on how you would like to spend your time.

Market Life and Local History

The Innisfil Farmers’ Market runs seasonally from May to October. Local farmers, food producers and artisans come together there. This makes the market a special stop for anyone interested in food and handmade products from the area. If your trip falls during this period, you can make the market a focus of your Innisfil plans.

Cookstown also offers a connection to local history: many buildings in the Cookstown Heritage Conservation District were built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Anyone interested in the history of places and their built heritage can plan a visit to Cookstown as a discovery in its own right. Cookstown thus complements the beaches and activities with a look at historic buildings.

The Eastern Ave Lakeside Park project includes an observation platform with access to the lake. It is another distinct attraction for visitors who want to include views and lake access among their interests. Together with the beaches, trail, market and activities at Town Square, it offers a variety of reasons to discover Innisfil.
