The Toronto Island ferries connect the Toronto Islands in Lake Ontario to the mainland of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The main ferry service carries passengers and vehicles from Jack Layton Ferry Terminal at the foot of Bay Street to several docks on the islands. Another ferry carries passengers and vehicles to Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport on the island from the foot of Eireann Quay. Private ferries carry passengers to various island boat clubs. Ferry services to the islands began in 1833, and the Toronto Island Ferry company began in 1883.

There are four public ferries to the islands. Three of these ferry services serve the island parks and Ward's Island, while the fourth serves the island airport. Beside the public ferry services, several yacht clubs and marinas located on the islands provide private ferry services for their members and guests. Private water taxi services are available from locations along the waterfront.

The Parks, Forestry and Recreation Division of the City of Toronto operates three public ferries to Hanlan's Point, Centre Island Park and Ward's Island from Jack Layton Terminal at the foot of Bay Street on the central Toronto waterfront. During spring and fall, the ferries operate on a 45-minute round trip. During summer months, the ferries make a round trip each half-hour. During the winter months, ferries serve Ward's Island at longer intervals, and Hanlan's Point only as needed to deliver or pick up vehicles. Fares vary from $3.72 per child to $7.72 per adult and monthly passes are available.

PortsToronto operates a free vehicle and passenger ferry from Eireann Quay at the foot of Bathurst Street to the island airport every 15 minutes during airport operating hours. There is no public access between the airport and the rest of the island chain.
