During the summer, take the free Staten Island Ferry to the free Governors Island ferry to take a free tour of Castle Williams which dates back to the Revolutionary War. Beautiful beach bar and park.

Free Bike Mornings on Governors Island allows visitors to borrow a bike for free for up to one hour every weekday. Visitors will be able to enjoy miles of biking without cars!

There's always something weird going on on Governor's Island. Only open in the summer, you'll encounter strange art, a couple shops, and a historic old fort. Don't let the cannons surprise you.

Great for summer bike rides and lounging in the park, this island is a free ferry-ride from Manhattan
