What To Expect

Statue of Liberty

We will get as close as possible to the Statue of Liberty for one of the best photo opportunities and view on the Harbor. Your captain has all the knowledge about her history from construction to the beautiful statue you see today.

Brooklyn Bridge

We will pass by the Brooklyn Bridge for a great photo opportunity. Your captain will give the history of the bridge including how it got its name. It is not as easy as it seems.

Lower Manhattan

You will experience the view of Lower Manhattan from the water. A view you will never forget. We will explain the architecture and history of the buildings including some unique stories on construction.

Ellis Island

Viewed from the water and your captain has wonderful commentary. We will explain the history of the architecture and the path immigrants took to get to America. The island is full of rich historical information that we will pass along. For example, no that is not graffiti on the building, we will explain as we glide by.

Governors Island

As we sail past the island we will explain the history and fun things to do! What is that round building? How did it get its name? What is that gray octagon building? Do people live there? So many questions and we have the answer. Governor’s island is a great place to visit for so many reasons.

I booked a 2-hour sunset sail for my husband’s birthday as a “gift of adventure” for someone who’s not into more “stuff.” The boat accommodates six people (in addition to the captain), which was just perfect for our group of friends, though you don’t have to book all six spots. We had a wonderful time, and Captain Clark was welcoming, friendly and highly knowledgeable about all things sailing. We learned a lot about currents and winds and the history of New York’s sea port. I definitely recommend this sailing trip if you want to sit back, relax and take in the phenomenal view of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Governor’s Island and Manhattan skyline. It’s a great option, whether you’re a local and need that vacation vibe, or a visitor looking to do something a little different that’s away from the crowds.

10 year old Johnathan says he “loved every minute” of his 1st sailing experience. It was a perfect July NYC morning with not a cloud in sight! He says he can’t wait to go back. Our family had a memorable experience together on the water. It was the best way to view the Statue of Liberty and Manhattan hands down! Tara was a beauty.

I called Captian David in the morning for a last minute private trip with my partner. He was extremely informative and professional. He was able to accommodate me for a private afternoon trip around Manhattan on his beautiful sailboat. The captain of the sailboat was Captain Matt. Captian Matt made my partner and I feel very relaxed and comfortable. We had a wonderful time with Captain Matt. He had a wonderful sense of humor and made the trip very enjoyable. The trip was so enjoyable that I had to call Captain David after the trip and thank him for his exceptional services and inform him that I would be going on future adventures with Captian Matt. This is a highly recommended experience for a group or a couple. 5 stars for Tribreca Sailing. Job well done Captain David and Captain Matt ☆☆☆☆☆
