A wonderful way to see the city by water for only $4! Tickets are easiest to get on the app in my experience. I love the beautiful views. Make sure to pay attention to which boat you hop on (which direction). I love to take the Astoria ferry after walking through Astoria Park. I enjoy the Carl Schurz Park stop right across the East River most, followed by viewing the Brooklyn bridge and city along the way to Wall Street.

This park is so peaceful, full of spaces for community activities, and has a great waterfront walk. The bathroom facilities, drinking fountains, and more are very well kept. Wonderful place for walks, sports, picnics, movie nights, and views.
