NEW YORK CITY’S PREMIER JET SKI TOURS
Sea the City remains New York City’s premier and top-reviewed Jet Ski tour company that allows guests to “sea the city” like never before. After building on this success, we launched our one-of-a-kind Hot Tub Boat tour in June 2020. Our Jet Ski and Hot Tub Boat tours have continued to captivate our guests, offering unparalleled views of NYC’s skyline and landmarks.
Our licensed guides lead you on an exhilarating one-hour Jet Ski tours of the New York Harbor and the Hudson River. You can ride alone on a Solo Ski, or with a partner on a Tandem Ski for two. No previous experience is required or expected. While our guides are there to help you navigate the waters of NYC, you will be driving your own Jet Ski. Your tour will take you on a journey past the major landmarks of NYC, including the Statue of Liberty, the Hudson River, The Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges, Ellis Island, Battery Park and The World Trade Center.
