Commuter guide

Questions riders ask before this trip

Stuyvesant Cove–Ferry Point Park runs north along the East River through East 34th, East 90th and Soundview. The dated holiday table took 43 to 49 minutes. The boat is the easy part; at the Bronx end, free parking helps, but the long park approach and limited weekday shuttle deserve their own plan.

How early should I arrive for the Stuyvesant Cove–Ferry Point Park ferry?

Arrive before the posted departure with your ticket ready and choose the Rockaway–Soundview boat toward Ferry Point Park. Boarding is first-come. On the return, leave enough time for the park path or shuttle so you reach the landing before the gangway closes.

How much is Stuyvesant Cove–Ferry Point Park?

The regular NYC Ferry fare is currently $4.50 one way. Buy in the app or at a landing machine. This is a one-seat ride through three intermediate stops; a return journey needs another fare because round trips are excluded from free transfers.

Can I park at Ferry Point Park?

Yes. NYC Ferry lists free parking at Ferry Point Park. The lot is not beside the ferry slip, so allow time for the path or weekday shuttle. Stuyvesant Cove has no operator lot and is better reached by bus, bike or drop-off.

Can I bring a bicycle to Ferry Point Park?

Yes, while the onboard rack has room. NYC Ferry vessels generally accommodate about eight to ten bikes and may stop accepting them when full. A bicycle is especially useful for the long Ferry Point park approach when the shuttle is not running.

Where is the accessible pickup at Ferry Point Park?

NYC Ferry lists the Access-A-Ride pickup and drop-off location as 498 Hutchinson River Parkway. Arrange that separately from the free parking shuttle and confirm your timing before travel; the listed address is not the gangway itself.
