"A great way to see the Statue of Liberty and the New York Skyline! It is free, best part of all! You can ride it over to Staten Island and return or visit some cool places like Snug Harbor in Staten Island! Bring your camera for great photo ops!"

A very worthwhile trip. We braved the trip on a very cold New Year's Day, but did not regret a minute of the trip there, or the time on the ferry. We enjoyed seeing the lower Manhattan skyline, but mostly took the trip to see the Statute of Liberty. The grand old lady does indeed look grand from the ferry. Gives you a sense of what immigrants may have thought arriving in America after a long and dangerous trip. The amazing thing is the trip over and back is free. Takes about an hour round trip. All time well spent.

Like many, many, many other New Yorkers, this is where I take whoever comes to visit me when they want to see the Statue of Liberty.
The ferry come pretty close to the statue, and it's free! So, why not?
The terminal is nice and modern, although I think they should have the time of the next ferry on the big screen on top and not on a small sign next to the door...
The ferry itself is really big, so you could always find a place to sit.

One of if not the best free attraction in NYC. A free ferry ride between Staten Island and lower Manhattan that goes right past the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge and gives a spectacular view if lower manhattan.
Once in Manhattan your just a few steps from the Seaport, Battery Park, Ground Zero and Wall St. On the Staten Island side the AAA ballpark for the Staten Island Yankees and a up and coming foodie area.
Oh, did I say it is free??

Such a amazing thing to experience and do. This ferry is super busy sense it is a public transit ferry. But it is free and a great way to get away from the city. Also a great way to see the NYC skyline. As well it gives you a great view of the NYC skyline and Statue of Liberty.
