Hotel Aloft New York LaGuardia Airport

The closest NYC Ferry terminal to Times Square is East 34th Street, accessible via subway or taxi from Midtown Manhattan. This terminal serves the East River and Astoria routes, connecting to Queens destinations and Roosevelt Island.

Reservations are not required for regular NYC Ferry service, as vessels operate on scheduled departures with first-come, first-served boarding. However, arriving early during peak times ensures seating availability, especially on popular scenic routes.

While ferries don’t stop directly at Brooklyn Bridge, the Brooklyn Bridge Park/Pier 1 terminal provides excellent access to the bridge and surrounding area. This stop on the East River route offers spectacular bridge views and park access for tourists and photographers.
