Every Buffalonian knows that Canalside is the place to be for outdoor fun on the waterfront. While the destination is best known for its kayaking, curling, and people watching, it’s also a great spot to see Buffalo by bicycle (and no, we’re not talking about the water bikes). When you’re on two wheels and want to explore more of the inner harbor, it can be tricky to find a good route – until now. Read on to learn more about this one-of-a-kind bike ferry boat adventure you can take in Buffalo:

The Queen City Bike Ferry offers rides to bicyclists (and pedestrians) from Memorial Day to Labor Day.
