About Gallagher Beach
Gallagher Beach is a shore-entry dive in Buffalo's outer harbor. The site sits in a busy recreational harbor where weekend jet skis and other boat traffic are the main surface hazards, and late-summer weed growth can make the shoreline harder to move through. The bottom is simple, but planning needs to account for public beach access, surface traffic, and changing weeds. Perch and bass are reported here.
