Day Cruises in New York
Boat tours in New York are perfect for sightseeing. Admire the skyline, sail by or to the Statue of Liberty and even pass under the Brooklyn Bridge. Manhattan is an island, making New York a great city to see from the water by boat. Enjoy a lunch cruise while sailing by the skyline. See whales during the whale watching cruise. Or step on board a historic ship and sail the waters around New York. If you are a thrill seeker, one of the speed boat tours might be something for you. Read all about my favourite boat tours below.
