The Water Rat Sailing Club offers affordable, low-impact access to Lake Ontario through sailing and paddling in Toronto’s Outer Harbour beside Cherry Beach. Founded in 1969, this volunteer-run, not-for-profit co-op is home to one of Canada’s largest Laser fleets and a community of over 200 members and their families. With shared facilities for dinghies, catamarans, canoes, kayaks, and racing programs, Water Rats keeps the waterfront active, inclusive, and accessible.
