3 Star for food, 5 star for the gorgeous view of Toronto from the island!!! It has a pleasant atmosphere, limited menu selection though... patio is quiet nice, peaceful. It is good for drinks. It has special ferry from the main land at the harbour front.

Visitors Mooring

Queen City Yacht Club is a small self-help club and a desirable destination point for many yachts.  In spirit, Queen City Yacht Club supports the concept of sharing our facilities with reciprocating Yacht Clubs everywhere.  As such we have established ourselves as a “ True Reciprocal ” club. A visiting yacht will receive what the visiting yacht’s home yacht club provides to a visiting QCYC yacht.  In the case of another true reciprocal club, the default is three nights free, for a maximum of three nights per visit. List of Reciprocal Yacht Clubs .

 Due to our size constraints and popularity (we welcome approximately 600 visitors per season) we do ask that visitors respect a few limitations:

• QCYC does not have the facilities to accept or manage reservations.We ask that a visitor always identify themselves by flying their club Burgee when entering our lagoon and show their Club Membership card when signing in for overnight stays.  A membership card is considered to be the only valid proof of membership.
• Except in exceptional circumstances, we ask that visitors limit their stay to no more than three consecutive nights and no more than two visits per year.
• Checkout time is 12:00 noon.
• Queen City Yacht Club limits these privileges to other Yacht Clubs with which we have reciprocal privileges.

A welcoming yacht club on the Toronto Islands

• Last updated:  June 18, 2021

QCYC will start accepting visiting yachts from reciprocal yacht clubs when the City of Toronto is in the Government of Ontario's Reopening Step 2 or Friday, July 2, 2021, whichever is later. This assumes that QCYC has space for the specific visiting yacht. Any COVID-19 restrictions and procedures that apply to QCYC members will apply to the crews of visiting yachts.

_____________________________________________

Please wear shoes on club property.  Call in on channel 68 when nearing our lagoon entrance to receive a mooring assignment.  QCYC is a smaller club and does not have designated visitor moorings.  Reciprocal visitors use the moorings of members who have temporarily vacated them.  The club does not take reservations.

QCYC is a not-for-profit community of sailors and friends located on parkland on Algonquin Island in the Toronto harbour – just minutes from downtown. Our boats are moored in a sheltered lagoon with a gorgeous view of the Toronto skyline.
