## Quick answer

Beach overflow fills AB launch lots by 11 AM, forcing trailers to circle or park on Lake Shore Boulevard East.

## Detailed answer

City of Toronto Parks lots at Woodbine Beach hit capacity first. Non-boating beachgoers then occupy AB launch parking. Arrive before 9:30 AM or use Tommy Thompson Park alternative access via Leslie Street Spit.
