Your expedition launches from Liberty Harbor Marina, 10 Marin Blvd, Jersey City, NJ. Here's how to navigate the concrete jungle to get there:

• By car: Take the NJ Turnpike to Exit 14C (Jersey City). Follow signs toward Liberty State Park. Paid parking is available at the marina.
• By PATH train: Take the PATH to Grove Street station, then a short rideshare or taxi to the marina (~10 min).
• By ferry: NYC Waterway ferries serve Liberty Harbor from Midtown and Downtown Manhattan.
• By rideshare: Drop-off at Liberty Harbor Marina, 10 Marin Blvd, Jersey City.

However you arrive, we suggest getting there 15 minutes early — the tides wait for no one.

All explorers receive a safety briefing before we venture into the deep. A few jungle rules to be aware of:

• Non-marking soles only on deck — please wear non-marking soles on deck, or the captain might get a little stern!
• Life jackets are available for everyone aboard — we have a vested interest in your safe return. Per New Jersey law, children age 12 and under are required to wear a life jacket whenever the boat is underway.
• No red wine aboard — the teak is gorgeous, and the spirits are vengeful. Trust us on this one.
• Dress in layers — it's usually cooler out on the open water than it is on shore.

The horizon is your friend — keep your eyes on it and your head above the cabin. Here are the survival tips our seasoned explorers swear by:

• Stay in fresh air and avoid going below deck
• Ginger pills, pressure-point wristbands, or doctor-prescribed patches are your allies
• Take any over-the-counter seasickness medication at least two hours before departure
• Go easy on the jungle juice — alcohol and seasickness are old enemies, and not the fun kind

The jungle can be unpredictable. Here's our cancellation policy:

• Weather cancellation: If we cancel due to unsafe conditions, you'll receive a full refund or a voucher to rebook.
• 3+ days before departure: Full refund.
• Within 3 days of departure: No refunds or rescheduling — the jungle is unforgiving, and so is our calendar.

You can. Gift certificates come in two flavours: the value of a set charter length (2–6 hours), or any amount you like. We email it to you as a certificate built to forward or print, so you can hand it over however suits — inbox, envelope, or dramatically, at dinner.

• They never expire. No deadline, no fine print, no quietly evaporating balance. The tides keep a schedule; this doesn't.
• Spend it in pieces. Use part of it on a shorter cruise and the rest stays on the code for next time.
• Good for more than the charter. It covers add-ons too — a photographer, or a Chelsea Piers pick-up.

To redeem, enter the code on the booking calendar and it comes straight off the total — or, if you have an account, redeem it from My Account and the balance waits there until you're ready.
