Humber Bay Park Shoreline Access sits at the mouth of Mimico Creek, where the creek discharges into Lake Ontario between the park's two large man-made peninsulas — Humber Bay Park East and Humber Bay Park West.

The 138-hectare park complex was established in 1984 and is owned by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority and operated by the City of Toronto.

Despite the park being surrounded by water on three sides and bisected by Mimico Creek, the 2019 Humber Bay Park Master Plan noted that direct shoreline access within the park is limited.

The site connects to the broader Waterfront Trail and regional cycling networks, and is reachable by public transit.

The shoreline and open water attract a variety of waterfowl and shorebirds, making the area a draw for naturalists and anglers alongside recreational users.
