NYC Audubon Winter Seals & Waterbirds Ecocruise

Meet at South Street Seaport’s Pier 17 and come aboard NY Water Taxi’s eco-friendly vessel for a winter adventure in New York Harbor! Enjoy a narrated tour searching for harbor seals on the rocky shores of Governor’s Island and the more remote Hoffman and Swinburne Islands--and learn about the surprisingly diverse winter birds of New York City, including ducks, geese, loons, and sandpipers, many of which migrate south from the Arctic. See the Statue of Liberty and pass under the Verrazano Bridge, and learn about the interesting history of New York's little-known islands. Enjoy complimentary hot cocoa and tea; other concession snacks available. Dress warmly and bring your binoculars (binoculars are also available for use during the cruise).
