Hanlan’s Point Island doggo. No photos on nude beach, happy to remember beach days with photos of doggos.

Since I came back home from Hanlan’s Point beach today, I look at my cats and I see naked naturalist empowered beings. Not kidding 😅
Looking forward to going back on Lez Beach day ☺️

Black-and-white photo taken July 19, 1934, showing children riding small motorized cars on the “Drive Yourself Ride” at Hanlan’s Point amusement park in Toronto. The ride is set on a smooth wooden track surrounded by lamp posts and trees. Each child sits behind the wheel of a vintage-style miniature car, navigating the curved path with visible delight. A young man, likely a ride attendant, stands nearby with his hands on his hips, monitoring the activity. In the background, a small building labeled “Ignacio Batteries” displays painted signs advertising “Everybody Twice Around 5¢.” Bunting decorates the fence line, adding to the festive summer atmosphere.
Black-and-white photo taken July 19, 1934, showing the interior of the Lake Shore Palm Gardens at Hanlan’s Point, Toronto. The spacious room features neatly arranged square wooden tables, each surrounded by matching chairs with spindle backs. Tall potted palm plants are placed throughout the room, creating a tropical, summery atmosphere. A large floral arrangement sits in the center, adding a decorative touch. In the far left, British flags form a backdrop behind a stage or raised platform. Natural light streams through the evenly spaced windows lining the wall. A small refreshment counter with glass bottles and a menu board is visible at the back right. The scene is elegant and calm, reflecting the refined charm of 1930s waterfront entertainment venues.
Black-and-white photo of children roller skating at the covered roller rink at Hanlan’s Point, Toronto, taken July 19, 1934. The open-sided wooden pavilion is roofed and supported by cross-braced beams and latticework, allowing natural light to filter in. About two dozen children—most wearing shorts or dresses and roller skates—are scattered across the smooth wooden floor. A few adults supervise near the perimeter. In the background, through the railing and columns, the architecture of a grand lakeside building is visible, adding to the festive atmosphere of this summer day on the Toronto Islands.

Toronto's #HanlansPoint is getting a stamp.
I didn't know the history wrt Toronto's #LGBT community.
It was always just a nudist beach to me.
Cool
A new pilot program to restrict boats from coming within 200 metres of Toronto’s only clothing-optional beach is expected to help address safety and sexual harassment concerns, a community group says. #HanlansPoint

At one point I was so into the idea of making tableaus and dioramas with shrinkfilm. And these pieces I found were unfinished Hanlans Beach Queers lounging and admiring and gawking, and celebrating.
