Welcome to the Neighborhood

Manhattan boat charters sailing past Little Island in New York City

Chelsea Piers boat tours start from the heart of Chelsea, an exciting cultural, culinary, and artistic neighborhood. Before or after your sail, take a stroll and discover why Chelsea is a must-visit destination.

Exploring The Neighborhood’s Gems
Skyline Strolls & Waterfront Wonders

Be sure to stroll on the High Line, an elevated park with walking paths that offer a unique view of the neighborhood and the city. Just a couple blocks away is Little Island, another elevated green space at Pier 55. This city park floats above the Hudson River with lush pathways and waterfront seating. If you’re craving a bite, Market 57 is a collection of restaurants as well as a rooftop park. For an even wider culinary adventure, visit Chelsea Market. All of these landmarks are less than three blocks from the sailboat.

Neighborhood of Expression
Art, Architecture & Pride

Architecture lovers can marvel at The Vessel, the striking honeycomb-like structure at Hudson Yards. Art enthusiasts will appreciate Chelsea’s renowned art galleries, which showcase works from both emerging and established artists. And for those looking to explore NYC’s LGBTQ+ scene, Chelsea’s bars and restaurants celebrate diversity and community.

Swing, Skate, Swim & Sail

Chelsea Piers is Manhattan’s waterfront playground stretching across 28 acres and five city blocks. The complex is the city’s sports mecca, packed with activities for adventurers of all kinds — golf, year-round ice skating, rock-climbing, swimming, gymnastics, indoor soccer, expansive gym, and even bowling. It is also the city’s largest boat marina and the main hub for Manhattan boat charters.

Chelsea Piers has deep nautical ties. During the Golden Age of transatlantic ocean liners, the White Star and Cunard Lines docked at these piers. When the RMS Carpathia returned after rescuing survivors from the Titanic, she docked here at Chelsea Piers.

A Manhattan sail cruise from Chelsea Piers is the perfect launch for unique experiences on water and on land.
