Activity itinerary

Statue of Liberty (Pass by)

Easily the most famous statue in the United States (and, potentially, the world), the Statue of Liberty is an icon visited by millions of tourists every year. Opting for a jet ski rather than the more popular ferry ride gives you close-up views and exclusive photo opportunities of Lady Liberty. Her silhouette against New York City’s skyline is a sight not to be missed.

One World Trade Center (Pass by)

The One World Trade Centre—often called the Freedom Tower—is the tallest building in the United States and a powerful symbol of resilience. Located in Lower Manhattan, it stands on the site of the former World Trade Centre and offers breathtaking panoramic views from its One World Observatory. Visitors can take in sweeping sights of New York City, the harbour, and beyond, making it a must-visit for both its history and unforgettable skyline experience.

Ellis Island (Pass by)

For decades, Ellis Island in New York Harbour served as the ‘gateway’ to America for millions of immigrants. Now home to the Ellis Island Immigration Museum, guests can learn more about the experiences of the many people who passed through the island’s infamous checkpoints. A jet ski ride provides an outstanding panoramic view of Ellis Island’s meticulously restored buildings, including its iconic red brick museum.

Governors Island (Pass by)

Governors Island is a peaceful getaway just minutes from Manhattan, offering green parks, scenic waterfront views, and a relaxed, car-free atmosphere. Travellers can bike, picnic, explore historic forts, or enjoy art installations and seasonal events—all while taking in stunning views of the New York City skyline and harbour.

Vessel (Pass by)

Located on the west side of Manhattan, Hudson Yards is an impressive mix of renovated residential buildings, high-rise offices, and restaurants built directly above the West Side Yard rail depot. While jet skiing, you can glimpse the Vessel, an intricate 16-story art installation, and the Edge, the highest outdoor sky deck in the western hemisphere.

Battery Park City (Pass by)

Battery Park in the Financial District is a scenic waterfront area at the southern tip of Manhattan. It offers beautiful harbour views, gardens, and walking paths, along with close-up sights of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Surrounded by historic streets and modern skyscrapers, it’s a great starting point for exploring New York City’s history and skyline.

Empire State Building (Pass by)

The Empire State Building is one of New York City’s most iconic skyscrapers, offering stunning panoramic views from its observation decks on the 86th and 102nd floors. Located in Midtown Manhattan, it’s a must-visit for travellers looking to experience breathtaking skyline views and a classic piece of NYC history.

Intrepid Museum (Pass by)

The USS Intrepid is a historic aircraft carrier turned museum docked along the Hudson River. Visitors can explore real military aircraft, walk the flight deck, and even step inside a submarine, making it a fascinating stop for history buffs and families alike.

George Washington Bridge (Pass by)

The George Washington Bridge spans the Hudson River, connecting Manhattan to New Jersey. Known for its striking architecture and sweeping views, it’s an iconic landmark where travellers can admire the skyline, watch river traffic, and appreciate one of New York City’s engineering marvels.
