Rockaway ferry — Local services in New York

A Must-Try NYC Ferry Experience!

The NYC Ferry is hands-down one of the best ways to get around the city — convenient, reliable, and surprisingly relaxing. The schedule is very accommodating, and the ferry arrived right on time. Everything was clean and well-kept, and the onboard snack bar is definitely a plus!

I’m a local, but today I decided to play tourist and enjoy the skyline from the water. The ride was smooth, the staff was friendly, and sitting outside with the fresh breeze made it even better.

Buying tickets is super easy, whether at the terminal using cash or card, or through the ferry app.

Parking lot across the street now is owned and operated by the hotel down the block. I guess you can pay but as per sign you need to get a ticket at the hotel. Idk if you need to be a...
