East 34th Street ↔ South Williamsburg

Reach the landing before departure with your ticket ready. Boarding is first-come. East 34th is at East 35th and FDR Drive; South Williamsburg is at 440 Kent Avenue. Choose East River B or Local. A skips South Williamsburg.

The current regular fare is $4.50 one way, bought in the app or at a landing machine. Greenpoint and any Local stops remain part of one ride. A return trip needs another fare, and the J/M/Z or buses use separate MTA payment.

Parking is not the sensible default. NYC Ferry says it is very limited near most docks and discourages driving. East 34th has the M34 and M15. South Williamsburg lists the B32, B62 and Q59, with the J/M/Z inland at Marcy Avenue.

Yes while the outdoor rack has room. NYC Ferry says vessels generally accommodate about eight to ten bicycles. Both landings list racks and Citi Bike docks. A full rack can mean waiting, so leave margin for a timed appointment.

It is one boat on East River B and Local sailings. B runs through Greenpoint; Local also serves Hunters Point South, North Williamsburg and Greenpoint. Across current compatible rows, examples take about 14 to 33 minutes. A is not your boat.

At 440 Kent Avenue near Division Avenue. NYC Ferry lists the B62 near Division and Berry and the B32 or Q59 near Broadway and Kent. The J/M/Z at Marcy Avenue is inland, so include the walk.

Local serves the entire East River sequence, including both A- and B-branch neighborhood stops. B omits Hunters Point South and North Williamsburg. Use the published arrival for your sailing rather than treating the route name as one fixed travel time.

South Williamsburg is farther south than the Bedford Avenue L corridor. North Williamsburg may suit that destination better when its A or Local service lines up. Pick by the final walk, not by the shared Williamsburg name.
