Governors Island

Whether you’re a native New Yorker or a tourist from out of town, Governors Island is a perfect spot to spend a fun-filled day with friends and family or simply devote some quiet and relaxing time alone.

Enjoy a 360 degree breathtaking view of the New York City skyscrapers.

Have a picnic and/or play volleyball at this man made beach.

Get a close-up view of the Statue of Liberty

Hop on a bike alone, as a couple, or with the entire family.

Kids (the kid in you) can spend hours playing miniature golf.

Take time to adore some very interesting artwork.

Pick a spot, lie on the grass, soak up the sun, and let your mind wander in the open sky.
