About
Most customers prefer to sail down the Hudson River to see the Statue of Liberty up close. In addition to seeing this glorious landmark up close, sailing to the Statue of Liberty also provides a mesmerizing landscape view of the Manhattan, Jersey City, and Brooklyn skylines, including the Brooklyn Bridge. Another option for a two-hour charter is to sail around Battery Park (the southern tip of Manhattan) and up the East River so we can pass underneath the Brooklyn Bridge.
For this two-hour charter, you will to choose between sailing close to the Statue of Liberty or underneath the Brooklyn Bridge. Both iconic landmarks are visible from one another.
A sunset charter typically starts when it is still light out and ends after the sunset, allowing us to view the skyline in different phases from day, to sunset, to night.
