Woodlawn Beach State Park050

Woodlawn Beach State Park is located on the eastern-most terminus of Lake Erie. Within the Buffalo metropolitan area, the park offers a beautiful, one-mile long natural sand beach with lovely panoramic views and spectacular sunsets on the lake.

Wildlife habitats here include one of the finest freshwater sand dune areas remaining on Lake Erie. Recreational opportunities are plentiful and include swimming, picnicking, beach volleyball, nature trails, and a playground on the beach.

A new nature center complex/bathhouse, with exhibits that highlight the park's natural history, is connected to the beach by an interpretive nature boardwalk through wooded wetlands. A unique special events space is available for parties and other gatherings; for reservations, call the park office for further information.

Pets are not permitted on the beach during the summer.
