What’s So Special About the Ellis Island Tour?

This landmark is an emotional experience for all visitors, especially those with family ties to ancestors who passed through it when it was a portal of opportunity.

When you take a jet ski to Ellis Island, you’ll also enjoy views of it from the water. As you cruise by Ellis Island on a jet ski rental with Sea the City, keep your eyes open for Lady Liberty herself. The Statue of Liberty can be seen perfectly from across Ellis Island, and she’s a sight that will take your breath away. Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty are just two of New York Harbor’s famous attractions you can experience on a jet ski rental from Sea the City!

Other Landmarks You’ll See as You Jet Ski Ellis Island

As you jet ski Ellis Island, take a moment to look around. This is not just any harbor! New York Harbor has been called “the most filmed waterway in the world.” With so many television shows and movies being set here, it’s easy to see why. How can you resist taking a selfie with Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty in the background? Ellis Island is also a popular backdrop for New York weddings.

During the tour, other sights you’ll see include the Manhattan skyline, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the Hudson Yards. The Ellis Island jet ski tour with Sea the City takes you through all these amazing sights! 

When’s a Good Time to Go?

The Ellis Island tour is available year-round. Five thousand people visit the monument daily, and seeing the iconic landmark from the back of a jet ski lets you skip those long lines you’d run into on land.
