Hail a different kind of taxi—a New York Water Taxi. This two-product flex pass allows you to commute along the Hudson River to Manhattan's hottest waterfront neighborhoods.

Get around New York City via the Hudson River. Just look for the bright-yellow catamarans with the classic black-and-white checkered pattern. Your two-product flex pass lets you choose between:
  • NY Water Taxi Sunset Tour or
  • NY Water Taxi Waterfall Tour
  • Hop on/off privileges (weekends only)
NY Water Taxi Sunset Tour
Relax on the soft white sands of Water Taxi Beach, home to amazing views of the Manhattan skyline. Whether you prefer volleyball, live music, delicious food, or lounging in the sun, this beach is just a four-minute Water Taxi ride from midtown Manhattan.

"New York Waterfalls" Tour
Through Oct. 7, 2008, explore New York Harbor's four thrilling new waterfall installations. As you admire these public artworks—each the height of the Statue of Liberty—learn about the project's concepts and construction. Your up-close view makes for an exhilarating New York moment!
