A great trip for any photographer, check out the old buildings and Yankee Pier on the back side of the Island. Bring a bike or rent one for ease of travel around the Island. @nerephotography

NYC's best idea-this National & Public Park space partnership. Have loved visiting over the past 6 or 7 years watching it grow and develop.

Beat the heat of the city by escaping to this island with epic views of Manhattan & the Statue of Liberty. Gorgeous old building dot the island. The West Indian food cart is amazing. -mb

Take a tour with a National Park Ranger every Friday, Saturday or Sunday @ 11:25, 1:25 or 3:25 to learn the history of this amazing and beautiful place.

Definitely rent a bike (or bring one) if you want to get around the whole island easily.

Come ready with a blanket and some grub and have a great picnic with amazing views of Manhattan.

Ferry from the end of Atlantic Ave in Brooklyn is no longer free, but is only $2 for a return trip. Only two sailings a day are free- 11am and 11:30am.
Ariane van DievoetGiugno 3, 2014
Awesome getaway from the crazyness of the city. Free ferry from governor Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn.
Daniel BarnettAgosto 28, 2015
Wonderful colonial style buildings, museums, and public parks. Great biking.
Michael CalleiaLuglio 13, 2013
Heads up, mixed uses bike and pedestrian paths = danger. I was almost hit by a ranger going fast and using people as pylons.
Joey TGennaio 19, 2016
Stunning but the whole island is not dog friendly

Wear sunblock and bring a water bottle. Luscious mulberry tree in meadow near the traffic light sculpture, ripe in mid-late July.

Whomever decided that installing the art piece with the bell and a rope to ring it with needs to be tarred and feathered. It ruins the whole idea of a peaceful time with the constant noise.

Fantastic island getaway 5 mins from Manhattan, rent a bike and explore
RazorfishSettembre 20, 2011
A little getaway from the City where the grass in greener, the air is fresher, the trees outnumber the people, and the ferry is free.
Brad WillardSettembre 26, 2016
Always check for the special events. Still great on its own.
Michael BelluardoLuglio 17, 2015
Don't even remember that I was in NYC. Awesome place to hang and bring a picnic
Divya JosephLuglio 27, 2013
Go there early! It's a lot more fun to bike around the island when it's not too crowded.
YiannisAgosto 28, 2012
Wear bug repellent. Get grub at Perfect Picnic--delicious food, friendly service, excellent concept...what more could you want?
Jacob ShemkovitzAgosto 31, 2013
Island in NY Harbor which served various branches of the US Military from 1783 until the late 1990s; future uses are still being decided

This became a venue we frequented a lot in summer '11 taking romantic ferry rides to Gov's Island and taking the ferry back feeling really dirty, smelly, hungry and tired from the concert.
D'Agostino SupermarketsGennaio 31, 2012
After the American Revolution, the U.S. Army set up camp on the island in fear of another British invasion. The U.S. Army has since been there for the past 200 years. Talk about setting up camp!
Drew SicklerSettembre 21, 2016
Rent bikes here $15/hour or $30/day to enjoy the entire island. They also offer Citibike if you are a member.
Mati LuikSettembre 3, 2014

Great place to briefly escape the crazy city. Bring along a picnic lunch for a lazy Sunday afternoon.
AndreaMaggio 29, 2011
awesome place outside of city. Bike ride for 2 hrs is $30 but worth the river view. Really unique spot.

Tons to do for kids. Art installations fun.
Craig HSettembre 14, 2014
If you don't like being constantly attacked by wasps (the bugs) don't come. This every corner of the island - makes it impossible to relax.
Dave DawsonSettembre 12, 2013
The greatest place in this city! Worth the ferry ride over. It's an island, that is a park!
Kristelle RoMaggio 28, 2013
A lovely pkace for family time and a picnic. Alcohol is not allowed, so leave your bottles at home.

Governor’s Island is now open to the public. It’s just a 10 minute ferry ride (FREE) from lower Manhattan, and an even quicker one from Brooklyn... Leggi tutto

Great to walk around when it's sunny. Avoid at all cost when it rains!
Connie KSettembre 13, 2010
Pack a picnic, outdoor games and bring your bike. Just a ten min boat ride... and it's all free. A great way to spend a Sat or Sun.

Just BEAUTIFUL! Plenty of things to do with out the confounded NYC crowd. Love it!
Anthony KorkhinAgosto 2, 2013
If you're planning on renting a bike, be sure you return it before 5:30pm or you'll get charged more.
LauraSettembre 15, 2013
Go early and skip the food court for Le Gamin by Fête Paradiso. Lovely day to be had by all.
Ana C. LightleGiugno 8, 2013
The ferry is free. Pack a picnic and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Bathrooms in the building right by ferry dock are very clean and little to no line.
Mauricio GMaggio 26, 2014
Bring cash if you plan on rating. Most places won't take credit or debit.
