Humber Bay Park is a waterfront park located in Mimico, a part of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The park consists of two landspits situated at the mouth of Mimico Creek

The park is on Lake Shore Boulevard West at Park Lawn Road. Humber Bay Park East, connecting to the Humber Bay neighbourhood that existed there through the 19th and 20th Centuries, is 19 hectares (47 acres). This cache is located in Humber Bay Park West which is 120 hectares (300 acres). Only Humber Bay Park East is located on Humber Bay.

Humber Bay Park was developed by the former Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority with 5.1 million cubic metres of lakefill, at a cost of $6.56 million. Lieutenant-Governor John Black Aird opened the park on June 11, 1984. Several habitat restoration projects have been initiated at Humber Bay Park, including the planting of Carolinian trees and shrubs, the establishment of wildflower meadows and the creation of a warm-water fish habitat and wetland on the east peninsula. The park is also a popular destination to view migrating birds.

The park has a number of amenities such as picnic tables, trails, a playground, and a beach front. The historic old Eastern Gap Lighthouse (c. 1895) are located at Humber Bay West, along with public boat launch ramps and moorings.
