The islands boast some of the best views of the city, both from the ferry and from the islands themselves - no matter which island you take the Ferry to (Ward, Centre or Hanlan's). It gets quite windy and during the winter months the islands are quiet but in the summer they are a central destination for pick-nickers and beach-goers. They also host a number of festivals & events.
