Step aboard the majestic Clipper City, New York’s largest passenger sailing ship, and let the city fade into the background as the wind fills the sails. Glide past iconic landmarks like the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the glittering Manhattan skyline, all unfolding around you like a living postcard. From the open decks, you’ll have unobstructed views perfect for capturing stunning photos and seeing the city from angles even locals rarely experience.
Whether it’s a romantic evening, a fun outing with friends, or simply a moment to relax and soak in the scenery, this sail offers a peaceful escape from the crowds. The Clipper City combines timeless maritime charm with modern comforts, including comfortable bench seating on the main and raised quarter decks, with the option to sit directly on the wooden deck.
Enhance the experience with handcrafted cocktails, wine, beer, and light snacks available for purchase from the full onboard bar, hailed by Downtown Magazine as “possibly the nicest cocktail bar in NYC.” Lean back and enjoy the gentle sway of the harbor as the city lights sparkle across the water, creating an atmosphere that’s intimate, elegant, and unforgettable.
With departures at 2:30 PM and 5:15 PM on select days, this 1.5-hour sail is designed to fit effortlessly into your day or evening, rain or shine. Dress in layers for cooler temperatures on the water, bring a camera, and get ready to experience Manhattan like never before.

We had a great time!!! Rain and all. The captain kept us out of the rain as much as possible and was almost dry by the time we got back to land.
