Step aboard at Pier 36 and experience NYC the way it’s meant to be seen, from the water, with skyline views and fresh harbor air.
Sail under the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges, past DUMBO, Jane’s Carousel, and the historic South Street Seaport as your guide brings each landmark to life with real NYC stories.
Cruise through a working harbor alive with tugboats, ferries, commercial ships, and the occasional Navy vessel, every trip feels different.
Get an up-close pause at the Statue of Liberty for incredible photos with the skyline behind you.
Enjoy indoor cabins, open-air decks, restrooms, and concessions so you can move around freely and take in every angle.
And once in a blue moon, you might witness something delightfully unexpected, like a tugboat pushing a giant pink flamingo.
