About Buffalo Harbor State Park

Lake Erie shoreline forms the setting for this 190-acre park and marina, made up of Gallagher Beach, the former NFTA Small Boat Harbor, and the stretch of waterfront land connecting the two. The park sits on the lake's edge within the city of Buffalo, combining open water access with a beach and harbor facilities in one contiguous property.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
