Lake Ontario is still higher than normal and one of the areas of the city most affected by this is Centre Island. All of the islands have been flooded to some extent but the low lying Centre Island was the worst hit.

Although the water level has gone down a bit since early May, large sections of Centre Island are still flooded. The ferries to Centre Island and Hanlons Point are not running and the Centreville amusement park is closed.

Great photos from the Islands. It shows exactly how bad it is for the local residents. The photo with the blue park bench and reflection of the trees on the water is so striking.
With the rains that continue to fall, I’m starting to think that the waters aren’t going to recede any time soon.
The blue bench photo is one of my favorites too. Centre Island was a bit eerie. The part that isn’t flooded is well maintained but no one is there.
I just assumed that no one was allowed to go over to Islands unless they lived there. Thanks for the peek at it.
Water taxi over ($10) Ferry back (free). You can also go over on the ferry if you are visiting someone or if you are going to one of the restaurants.
I was wondering about the restaurants. I thought they might be closed. I’m guessing they are really taking a beating without any tourists on the Islands.
