Location

MIMICO CRUISING CLUB has occupied since 1978, a 22 acre site on the landfill project called HUMBER BAY PARK WEST. This project, initiated by the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority during the 1970's, envisaged a lakeside peninsula that would be a public park with lagoons, wildlife, launching ramps, parking and a protected harbour. A Community College Sailing School and two "Self-Help" Yacht Clubs would share the harbour formed by the peninsula.

Directions on the water

We are located at the west end of Humber Bay, just West of downtown Toronto (Bay Chart). The entrance to the harbour is located at 43°36.6 North and 79°29.0 West. Once inside the harbour proper, Mimico is at the East end of the harbour (Harbour Chart) 43°37.08 North and 79°28.78 West. Our neighbour, Etobicoke Yacht Club, is at the South end of the harbour. 

Directions on land

From the West. From the 427 or the Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW), head East. After the 427 merges on to the Gardiner Expressway, keep right to stay in the collector lanes. Take the Parklawn exit until it ends at a traffic light on Park Lawn Road. Turn right, then right again at the light onto Lakeshore, then take the first left into Humber Bay Park West. We are the second driveway on the right

From the East. Cross downtown on the Gardiner Expressway until you are well past the Exhibition grounds. Eventually you will see two exits close to each other. The first is South Kingsway and the second is Lakeshore. Take Lakeshore exit and turn right onto Lakeshore Road at the end of the ramp. Go past two traffic lights (the second is Park Lawn Road) and take the next left into Humber Bay Park West. We are the second driveway on the right.
