We went to Niagara Falls on the NY side to celebrate our wedding anniversary and would highly recommend it!

The parking was very accessible and close to the walking trails, and the entire park was very well maintained. It was patrolled by several rangers during our time there and is a very beautiful and intriguing place to visit. Also an economic trip as the park was free to enter and nearby hotels are extremely reasonable.

It's dog friendly-the entire park and the Cave of the Mist is as well (last I checked). Our dog absolutely LOVED being able to see the falls and explore the paths. Goat Island is simple to navigate with various landmarks and sights to admire. Great view of the falls. We went during December and this was an optimal spot to watch the fireworks.

Beautiful, but couldn’t walk down close due to weather.

You can go and feel the nature. It’s clean and so much to do there!
Very relaxing!

Goat Island

Goat Island is a part of the Niagara Falls State Park and sits between the Bridal Veil Falls and Horseshoe Falls offering many great views of the Falls, including from Terrapin Point. Goat Island also connects to nearby Luna Island and Three Sisters Island.

Great piece of accessible history within arms reach of WNY region. Highly recommended experience and deeply immersive.

Living relic, beautiful views. Surrounding park is full of amenities for when taking advantage of favorable weather in the area.

Short walk for great views of the whirlpool

Great trails for walking. Be aware that the whirlpool trail is 367 steps down to the river and an additional 47 steps up to the parkway. There are picnic tables near the bottom.

Whirlpool State Park is located in Niagara Falls, NY and makes for some amazing photo opportunities of the Niagara with an impressive view of the Whirlpool Rapids. 

Gives a whole different perspective to the falls!! Would 100% do again!!

Cave of the Winds is not worth spending half a dollar on. The view is bad, it is a better experience to walk around the river throughout the park!

Descend 175 ft into the Niagara Gorge then walk along a series of wooden walkways to the hurricane deck where you will be just a few feet away from the Bridal Veil Falls. 

Its ok.  Small facility but informative. Bit overpriced.

The aquarium of Niagara is a smaller aquarium but still worth the visit. The human parts of the facility are clean. The enclosures are well kept and inhabitants seem very comfortable and content. As soon as you arrive you are able to see seals swimming outside. I recommend catching the sea lion show. The staff is very knowledgeable and patient.

Super clean, nice looking animals... but really small aquarium... the size and money, I dont think its worth it. You can go to the lockport pet store and see twice as many species... for free. And to pay $5 for parking for such a short visit? Not worth the visit if yiu ask me.

Great staff but very overpriced for how small it is. They definitely take advantage that there aren’t many kid friendly attractions.
