It's hard to know where to start when writing about Liberty Landing Marina because there are just so many great things about it! The location is unbeatable - both for the convenience of a quick mid-passage stopover or a multi-day transient stay. Floating docks, easy access, and 24-hour fuel are just a few of the benefits of the marina itself. There is also a fully stocked ship's store, an excellent service department, and a Captain's Lounge with the cleanest bathroom facilities you will find anywhere! And did I mention the views? The New York City skyline, the Statue of Liberty and the Verrazano Bridge, and all of the vistas that the East River and Hudson River have to offer. Strolling through Liberty State Park is a joy, and there is a sense of safety morning, noon, and night. And I would be remiss if I didn't mention that there is no better spot to view July 4th fireworks from. But what really sets Liberty Landing Marina apart from all others is the people. From Janer (the Dockmaster) and Ivan (ship's store manager) and everyone in between, you won't find a nicer, more knowledgeable and helpful group of people anywhere! Even more impressive is the length of time that many of these people have worked there. I've been going to Liberty Landing for years and there is always a familiar face to greet me! If you ever have the opportunity to spend a few days in New York Harbor don't look to stay anywhere else -- you won't be disappointed!
