Victory Parade runs along the shoreline and passes the Toronto Hotel and Toronto Foreshore Park. In the park is a tablet with the following inscription: "This is the site of Reverend Threlkeld's second mission for Aborigines, established in 1830 on his 1,280 acre grant, 'Derambambah'. Purchased by the Excelsior Land Co., together with 9.5 miles of Crown waterfront reserve, the subdivision was named Toronto. Picnic grounds were established and the Toronto Hotel opened 27.12.1887. The suburbs of Carey Bay, Coal Point and Kitchen Bay are also part of the old grant 'Berambambah'. "
There is a charming walk along the foreshore and the well grassed area has numerous boat ramps and small marinas. There are views northwards across to Kooroora Bay and north-east to Bolton Point, both on the next peninsula.
