Welcome to Gateway Harbor!
Gateway Harbor of the Tonawandas is one of the premier recreation locations in
Western New York with a summer season packed with free events and entertainment.


Situated at the start of the Erie Canal, Gateway Harbor is also one of New York State's best kept boating secrets. From June to September, live free concerts entertain boaters and land-lovers alike with local, regional and national acts.

The docking facilities in Gateway Harbor are first class, providing water, electricity, showers, restrooms, pump-out, laundry facilities and over 1.2 miles of Canalway Trail. Free wireless internet is also available to boaters and park-goers. Docking fees range from $5 - $25 per night, depending on vessel size.

Within a short distance of Gateway Harbor are tantalizing restaurants, antique shops, art galleries, and other retail treasures. You can also check out our historical venues, including the Long Homestead, the Rivera Theatre, and the Allan Herchell Carousel Factory Museum - to mention a few.
