This weekend we visited the Buffalo Naval and Military Park and Canalside on the Buffalo Waterfront. This weekend was also the first Asian Festival in Buffalo that day at Canalside as well. There are so many festivals and summer events in Buffalo, sometimes 3-4 every weekend. It is so great to see. Also, the Buffalo Waterfront has changed immensely for the better since I was a kid. It is great to see the beauty of the area finally be realized so that my kids can enjoy it. Summers in Buffalo are amazing and a real treat.

Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park
The Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park is a great summer place to visit with kids of all ages and it’s an annual visit for our family.
The highlight of the park is three decommissioned naval crafts, The USS The Sullivans destroyer, the USS Little Rock guided missile cruiser, and The USS Croaker, a Gato-class submarine. Tours are self guided and you follow a yellow line through all three ships so as not to get lost (yes they are that big!). Inside the destroyer and cruiser are wartime displays of historical models, maps, and uniforms. There is so much to see that you could probably spend all day there if you wanted to. My kids prefer to zip through those areas and just appreciate the enormity of the ships and their seemingly infinite number of rooms.
Even though the USS Croaker is at the end of your tour, make sure to at least go through quickly. It is absolutely amazing to see how small it is inside and to imagine sailors living onboard for weeks at a time.
Other than the three ships, there are some other displays in the park consisting of tanks, airplanes, helicopters, and a PT boat as well as memorial walls for wars the United States was involved in.
Where you are finished grab a bite at one of downtown Buffalo’s newest pub eateries, ‘Liberty Hound’ right next door to the park.
Admission is $10 (17+) and $5 for kids (6-16). Under 6 is free.
PRO TIP - Check Groupon. They usually have some great deals on tickets for the park.
The Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military park is located at: One Naval Park Cove, Buffalo, NY 14202.
