Best Views On A Boat Charter NYC

Sailing always comes with the best sights and experience — Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Brooklyn Bridge, Financial District, World Trade Tower, Governors Island, and stunning views of the city skyline. Beyond sightseeing, sailing is an immersive experience. Wtih a US Coast Guard licensed captain at the helm, the sails will unfurl and you’ll feel the power of the wind carrying you across the water. Sail NYC and lose yourself in the ever-expanding sky.

This is not your average New York yacht rental; it’s an invitation to embrace the untamed beauty of the sea. Keep an eye out for natural wonders — seals are back, fish are jumping, even fin whales have been spotted in the waterways. Catch nature’s light show during the evening cruise NYC, or go for the glamour of a night boat tour NYC.

Incredible New York Sunset Sail

Perfect experience for a family, small group of local friends, or tourists. Stunning city skyscapes and incredible sunset views! Gino and Caleb were an amazing staff - friendly, knowledgeable and so accommodating. The night had an unexpectedly perfect ending with a fireworks show over the Hudson, too. Could not recommend more!

Drinks & Music

We loved our experience with them! Boarding was super easy and the captain was experienced and witty. They set us up with drinks and music right at the beginning and really let us do our own thing the entire trip checking in to see what we needed often. None of us had any experience on a boat but anything we needed to know they explained early on (not a whole lot other than safely moving around the boat because they handled everything). All 6 of us would do it again, loved it! Phenomenal way to view the city skyline and Statue of Liberty!
