NYC Ferry operated by City Experiences aims to provide a new, affordable way to travel between waterfront communities throughout New York City. The six routes span over 60 nautical miles of waterways and will connect New Yorkers and visitors to the city’s waterfront communities – including neighborhoods, job centers, and parks.
Remember to show your ticket to the deckhand before you board. You can purchase tickets on the app or the Ticket Machines at the landings.
Schedules can be found in our NYC Ferry app and are available for download through the website at www.ferry.nyc. Departure schedules can also be found at every landing.
Tickets are available for purchase through ticket machines. All transfers within the NYC Ferry system are free and valid for 120 minutes once you start your one-way trip. Round-trip journeys do not qualify for free transfers.
Children under the height of 44 inches can ride for free when accompanied by an adult. Please make sure children are accompanied by adults at all times. Stroller parking is available onboard. Travel safe! Follow the safety procedures to ensure the best quality experience.
Bikes are welcome on the ferry. NYC Ferries can accommodate approximately 8-10 bicycles (riders who bring a suitcase-sized folding bike can keep their bike with them while traveling). Please note that there is a limit to how many bicycles each ferry can safely carry and if we reach bicycle capacity you may not be permitted to board with your bicycle.
NYC Ferries are 86 ft. long, offering riders more space.
Ferries are primarily built out of aluminum, a lightweight material that increases fuel efficiency. The fleet of 27 vessels is built with an equivalent of over 77 million cans of aluminum.
All ferries are equipped with ultra-efficient T3 engines to reduce emissions and we’re introducing the first T4 vessels in our fleet soon.
The innovative hull design will limit wakes and maximize fuel efficiency
