Subway 25 mins
We realised that we had walked to the wrong ferry terminal.
Following instructions, cutting through Battery Park.
09:30 AM Statue of Liberty South Ferry Terminal
A – Staten Island Ferry
B – Statue of Liberty South Ferry Terminal
Walk 0.45 KM, 5 mins
Found the ferry terminal at last!
Collected our pre-booked tickets
We had to go through strict airport style security checks before we were allowed on board.
There was already an extremely long queue at the Ferry Terminal when we arrived. Lucky we had higher priority as we had pre-booked our tickets for the 9 AM ferry. So remember to pre-book if you are heading there.
We got the front most seats, where we “enjoyed” the cold winter wind. Brrrrrrrrrrrr……
Can you spot the snake of people queuing up outside?

Look at the crowd
