A little while back early one morning I did a visit to South Street Seaport before going to the office for the day, its a real nice place to visit, has a nice vibe of the Brooklyn bridge, but also these cool old ships which I will focus on for this post

Nothing was open when I visited in the morning, but it has plenty of options of things to do if you visit there such as;

Exhibitions and Historic Ship tours

you can sail the NY Harbor on a historic Schooner

See Old ships including the

The Wavetree which is the flagship of the Seaport Fleet and is 130+ years old and was refurbished not to long ago at a cost of 13 Million Dollars

The 1907 Lightship Ambrose as well as Schooners Pioneer and Lettie G Howard, plus a steam powered Wooden Tug

There are walking tours and some cool boutique shops so all in all a cool place to stop by if visiting NYC.

What a beautiful shot! Love the nautical motif and it being in port, rather than out sailing is a plus.

What a statement she makes.

Thanks they are such grand ships arent they

Yes! Do you remember about five years ago when the tall ships were here?

Very neat ice always wanted to see boats like that in person but never got the chance.

Never say never one day you may 👍😎
