Easiest way to get to and from the Rockaways. Ferry's are 95% on time, I have never experienced overcrowded.
So much wind
Best $4 ride from pier 11 to the beach! The ferry schedules are pretty consistent and they have shuttles on the rockaway side that can take you closer to the beach.
It’s not too busy on the weekdays, great views from the ferry. The ferry has a concession stand on board, comfortable seats and charging points.
This ride is much better than taking the A train

Great way to get to the rockaway beach! Adds to the experience
We took the ferry from Dumbo Brooklyn to Pier 11/ Wall Street and then the next ferry from Wall Street to Rockaway with just one stop on the way. The first ride was just 4 minutes but the second was almost an hour. Due to the slightly rough weather it was turbulent in parts but when it became too much they brought the ferry to a stop and then continued at a slower pace. Because of the weather and being a weekday afternoon there were very few people on the boat.
I missed out on the senior citizen discount because I was unaware of it and didn't register in advance.

Excellent way to get to Lower Manhattan (also stops at the Brooklyn Army Terminal). Clam trip, captain slows the ferry down when crossing wakes from other vessels so it's not to bumpy... Parking at the moment is parallel parking on the streets where you can find it. Read the signs for street sweeping times.... Parking lot across the street now is owned and operated by the hotel down the block. I guess you can pay but as per sign you need to get a ticket at the hotel. Idk if you need to be a guest or not....
The Ride to the lower East side of Manhattan was about 50min. With a quick stop in Brooklyn was alot more enjoyable than taking the (A) 🚆. On a good day it's about a hr on the train. But anyway it was a nice day out so we rode on the top. We had great views 360° from Rockaway to the point and all along Brooklyn, Coney Island 🏝 and the Verrazzono Bridge 🌉 looks a lot different from the water.
