Erie County Wendt Beach Park

Wendt Park in Derby, NY is a picturesque 164-acre lakefront estate that was once the summer residence of the Henry W. Wendt, Jr. family. With its beautifully manicured lawns, picnic tables, and playground, this passive park offers a serene setting for picnicking and enjoying the outdoors. However, swimming is prohibited due to the rocky shale beach conditions and the absence of lifeguards.

Visitors to Wendt Park can also indulge in birdwatching and photography, as the park is home to a variety of migratory birds. Anglers can test their skills in Lake Erie, which is teeming with panfish, catfish, walleyes, northern pike, bass, and perch. Camping, open fires, and alcohol are not allowed in the park, and visitors are encouraged to adhere to the regulations set by the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Forestry.
