There are three main islands - Centre Island, Ward's Island and Muggs Island - just off Queens Quay Terminal that are easily accessible by ferry boats (Call 392-8193 for schedules) that run every 20 minutes. Day trippers can take their bikes, a picnic lunch, tennis rackets (there are public courts) and bathing suits (or not! There is now a city sanctioned nude beach on the north side of Centre Island). There are three yacht clubs on the islands, a children's park and zoo, beaches, parks, outdoor barbeques and quite a few little fast food spots if you didn't pack a sandwich or two. There is also a small community of 275 permanent homes here that tolerates their day-guests with polite resignation. Just don't knock on their door to ask directions to the nude beach.
