Activities in New York

The Rink at Rockefeller Center is New York's most iconic seasonal ice-skating rink, operating each year from October through April beneath the golden Prometheus statue and the famous Christmas tree during the holiday season.

The Staten Island Ferry is a free, 25-minute commuter ferry connecting Whitehall Terminal in Lower Manhattan to St. George Terminal on Staten Island. The ride offers some of the best views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and the Lower Manhattan skyline — all without paying a cent.

Chelsea Piers is a 28-acre sports and entertainment complex occupying four historic piers along the Hudson River in Chelsea. Originally the departure point for transatlantic ocean liners, it now houses facilities for bowling, rock climbing, ice skating, golf, sailing, and more.
