NYC FERRY

Augmenting what is already the most comprehensive public transportation system in the United States, the NYC Ferry plies the city’s waterways, connecting commuters from far-flung neighbourhoods to Manhattan by boat. From this mode of transport, visitors more easily explore buzzing hideaways such as Astoria and the Rockaways, or see Brooklyn Bridge from underneath. The best part, however, is the spectacular view of Manhattan from the water. It’s time to up your selfie game. Tickets are R36 ($2,75) for a one-way trip. ferry.nyc
