Seasons in Toronto

An all-weather destination
Situated on the northern shore of Lake Ontario, Toronto is one of the southernmost cities in Canada. In fact, its latitude is very close to that of northern California. As a result, Toronto has a surprisingly moderate climate with the warmest springs and summers in Canada.

Summer
Summers in Toronto can be quite warm and fairly humid. Midsummer temperatures range from 61-81°F/16-27°C, with quite a few days in the 90s (32-35°C). As a result, the beaches, parks, and patios are packed all summer long.

What to pack:
Sunscreen. As for clothes, anything goes in the summer in Toronto–from shorts & sandals to jeans and sundresses–but take note: shirts & shoes are mandatory at most dining and retail establishments.
