Thank u for the tip!

Cherry beach, Marie Curtis Park in Etobicoke, High Park, David Belfour Park, Morningside Park in Scarborough and other places were very busy about 20 years ago 😅

[@alancrisp1582]

👍 Wow, you seem very well informed. If I should ever visit these places, I would like you as my tour guide !..😊

[@jomo8385]

Marie Curtis was really great but just a heads up: It was raided about 2 years ago due to complaints from people moving in to the new condos in the brown lands......lives ruined in those caught in the raid. Be alert

[@dramonmaster222]

Thanks 🙏 for these cruising videos.

[@PatrickMarano]

Glad you like them!

It's very difficult to find Toronto vlogers and this is the first one I subscribed to

[@wolfbear7]

Regato road? I must check it out next time I visit Toronto.

[@PatrickMarano]

Regatta... and yes

[@jcbaily5559]

In you cruising journeys, have you ever run across a guy naked and tied up and left for others? Have a great day!

[@PatrickMarano]

Hmmm naked yes. Tied up no.

[@Fathertyme-z2c]

Thats a FANTASY i constantly luv having...wish it come true lol...thanxx

[@labergsy]

We had something similar in Montreal called Parc Angrignon, two large wooded area right beside the parking lot so you had two type of cruising, with cars or in the two wooded park.... unfortunately, the cops started to raid the place several several times and the activity stopped completely and even the parking cruise stopped because they made it a paying lot, but I remember amazing adventures both in car and wood, so looking at your video right now, made me a little jealous.... Are you not afraid about the cops and the ticks how about them ticks ???

[@PatrickMarano]

Bug spray, and just keep an eye out.

[@michaelcipollone50]

In Marie Curtis Park in Etobicoke gay men were having open sex everywhere in broad daylight even close to the children's playground which is discusting and eventually straight people who live in the neighborhood and mothers with children see this activity and complain and call the police and it really makes gay men look really bad like we're a bunch of "PERVERTS" and i aggree.If gay men have outdoor sex here they should at least try to make an effort to be more "discreet".I really don't think innocent children need to see to adult men having sex right in front of them.This park was raided by the police and undercover cops many times because of heterosexual people from the neighborhood complaining anf i don't blame them either.

[@PatrickMarano]

I can honestly say I have never seen or spoken to anyone who didn't care if children were watching. No one wants this. Period. This is just parents being protective of their children and reporting activity because they're afraid.

[@BrianlMulligan]

Thank you for the informative video 😁.

[@PatrickMarano]

My pleasure!

[@patrickrwhite8354]

I lived in Toronto for 11 years and never knew of this place I only knew of Cerntre Island and Hanlans Point. My to go to on the weekends and on summer breaks. Thanks for the heads up.

[@Fathertyme-z2c]

Can you tell me what Hanlans Pt. is like...thanx Patrick

[@patrickrwhite8354]

@@Fathertyme-z2c It is the western end of Centre Island. It is the Gay Hub I believe of Toronto. Nudity is optional but totally legal and you will have a good time meeting people there you can even swim. Loads of sandy beach for you to lie on and soak up the rays. it really is an oasis When I was there in the period between 1984 and 1995 it was full of police issuing tickets for people there but that all changed and is now totally acceptable as one of the best Nude Beaches in Ontario Well of Coarse there is Wreck Beach in BC and clothing is also optional. But if you ask me between the two places. Centre Island is the best. Enjoy. hope this helps. By the way I was there in Hanlans point in 2018.

[@roundesthedgehog]

There's always risk. It's part of the adventure for some gays like me. If you very much worry for STIs just live monogamy.

There's something called DoxyPEP available now

It's a shame that here in the U.S., the puritanical attitudes towards sex, and gay sex in particular, ALWAYS destroys our cruising places, with the pig cops eventually discovering these places and then entrapping guys and arresting them for "public indecency," on and on. I sure wish we had something like this where I am, the fun I could have there!! 😂🎉

I am gay myself but i've found a lot of gay men to too sleazy and way too promiscuous.Iv'e been in a cruising park before in the past where I would see one guy go up to every single guy in the park and have sex with them which really turns me completely off.Some gay men in the parks will have sex with just about anyone ,seriously.Some of them can be very slutty.

[@johnwalters978]

Well the cops know all about now

[@alancrisp1582]

Luckily in my country New Zealand, the 👮 police are very supportive of gay people . And will always turn a blind eye, unless there is a reported crime. We also have many openly gay policeman, men and women.......

[@PatrickMarano]

They know about everything, this is nothing new for them

[@Corbomite_Meatballs]

Cops learned about all these places as soon as lists of them started appearing online 20+ years ago.

[@michaelcipollone50]

Yes but I've heard a lot of gay men were having open sex in Marie Curtis Park in the daytime and NOT being discreet about it at all and that's why people call the police and even undercover cops go there to raid it and it's own own fault.I was once at David Balfour Park in the early Spring with no leaves on the trees at all and at the bottom of this hill I could clearly see two men having sex and anyone could see them.A lady was walking her dog on a nearby path and I saw two young women walking along the St.Clair bridge and they both stopped and looked down ,saw these two guys and what they were doing and I heard them say "O.M.G." I myself was standing on top of this little hill watching but they didn't know me at all and I could have been an undercover cop.right.This was 2 or 3;00 in the afternoon on the weekend.

[@PatrickMarano]

Michael, I can honestly say I've never seen anything like that before. These guys are obviously not right. No one should be witness. But the pearl clutching is a bit much. If they get arrested, they get arrested, it's on them. And they have zero reflection on the community and I refuse to let bad apples act as a blemish on the community. Why should we all be judged by a few?

[@robertcuminale1212]

[@ryanmiller5723]

With all due respect, anybody who goes to Regatta is shaking their head right now. You might think you are doing a service to the gay community but you are really only doing a service to yourself for a few more clicks and that is sad. You are kind of selling out and will probably get more frowns the next time you go there. You obviously go there almost never especially if you are looking for lamp posts. Geeeesh! This video totally discredits you as an expert on cruising and makes me wonder why i would want to watch the next great reveal shining a spotlight on anonymous cruising zones. why not just do your next videos on outing young gay men, cause it doesn't seem like that would be a stretch.

[@PatrickMarano]

Shaking their heads and frowns? LOL... 'Anonymous'? C'mon Ryan... everyone knows these places exist (cops included). Stop the pearl clutching and just watch another channel.
