If laid out in one line, New York City’s coastline would stretch from Boston to DC, which is why it's surprising that only a handful of NYC’s islands are known by name. On this tour, we’ll follow the 520 miles of city coastline and learn about many of NYC’s 42 islands. This tour will introduce you to some new stories, like why Theodore Roosevelt and Prince Henry of Prussia visited Staten Island together. You’ll also learn about familiar landmarks such as Castle Williams and the history of a community shaped by New York’s waterways.
