Circle Line: Statue of Liberty Speedboat Ride

About this experience

Circle Line Statue of Liberty Speedboat Ride Speed across New York Harbor at 45 mph on The Beast, Circle Line's custom-built powerboat designed for thrill and safety. This 30-minute adrenaline-fueled tour delivers close-up views of the Statue of Liberty, Manhattan skyline, and New York's most famous landmarks from a perspective you won't find on any regular cruise. Your high-speed adventure takes you past the Empire State Building, One World Trade Center, and Ellis Island while your guide provides expert commentary above the roar of the engines. The boat slows for a special photo stop directly in front of Lady Liberty, giving you that perfect Instagram shot before powering on through the harbour. Each seat comes equipped with seatbelts and handrails for maximum safety during the ride. This speedboat tour suits visitors who want to see New York's famous sights quickly without spending hours on the water. It's ideal for families with adventurous children, groups seeking excitement, and solo travellers who prefer active experiences to passive sightseeing.
