About this camp
We are thrilled to be back on the Island! Toronto Island Y Day Camp is one of our longest-running outdoor camp locations. In addition to swimming in our YMCA-owned and operated above ground pool, senior campers will swim at Ward’s beach. Our Outdoor Adventure campers will enjoy canoeing, kayaking, and stand-up paddle boarding around the Island, while campers in the Outdoor Living Skills program will learn how to build fires and shelters, and hone their archery and map and compass skills. Multi-Sport campers will play field sports, and bike the many trails found in Ward Island.w
