7 Things To Do In Toronto This Weekend If You Want To Soak Up All The Sunshine

You can (finally) enjoy some warm weather!
Lead Writer, Travel

After many chilly months, it looks like some warm weather is finally on the way.

You can soak up some sun on the weekend with these things to do in Toronto.

The Weather Network expects temperatures to soar up to 7 C on Saturday and Sunday, which is basically Canadian T-shirt weather.

You may not be able to enjoy all the usual warm-weather activities due to the stay-at-home order, but you can still get some exercise, food and sunshine on your days off.

Leave your winter coat behind and drink up some fresh air this weekend.

Visit The Beach

Why You Need To Go: It may not be tanning weather yet, but Sugar Beach is still worth a visit for some summer vibes. The pink umbrellas and waterfront views go hand-in-hand with the warmer weather.

Indulge In Some Gelato

Price: 💸

Address: 6 Charles St. E., Toronto, ON

Why You Need To Go: The first order of business when the weather starts warming up is to order a big helping of ice cream, or, in this case, gelato. Enjoy a cone from Nani's Gelato as you soak up some sun.

Chase A Waterfall
