From the boat that takes us to Staten Island, will have superb views of Lower Manhattan. The walk through the Brooklyn Bridge is well known, but not so much the Staten Island Ferry, a ferry to another island from New York, Staten Island. It is a ferry that leaves from the ferry terminal in lower Manhattan, near Battery Park. Departures are very frequent, usually every 20 minutes. Moreover, the passage is free. We can be reached by taking the subway line 1. By the way, you have to be in the top 5 cars, all who have the train to get off at South Ferry, end of line 1. The trip to Staten Island is very fast. As about 25 minutes. But during that time we will be very entertaining seeing the sights. First we see the Battery Park, with the skyscrapers of first line, then we can see the whole Manhattan. Later, the view will expand to include other neighborhoods such as Brooklyn or nearby New Jersey. The trip to Staten Island is very fast. As about 25 minutes.
