Cruises from New York
There are actually two cruise ports in New York, one being in "The Big Apple," New York City (Manhattan), and the other being in the fairly nearby borough of Brooklyn. The cruise port that your ship departs from depends on the particular cruise line, as each cruise line tends to use a specific terminal. For example, Carnival Cruise Lines and Norwegian Cruise Line's ships only depart from New York City, while Princess Cruises and Holland America Line typically (but not always) use the Brooklyn cruise terminal. You should always verify which cruise terminal your ship will be at prior to leaving for your cruise, as you don't want to end up at the wrong one! Being such a popular cruise departure port, cruises from New York are available year round!
Among the many cruises from New York, a particularly large selection are available through Norwegian Cruise Line. Options include 7-night Bahamas & Florida cruises aboard Norwegian Gem and Norwegian Breakaway, as well as 7-night Bermuda cruises on the same ships. Want to take a longer cruise from New York? Consider Norwegian Cruise Line's 9- or 12-night Eastern Caribbean cruises, or 10-night Canada & New England cruises, all leaving from New York aboard Norwegian Gem or Norwegian Breakaway. Beginning in April 2018, the brand new Norwegian Escape will replace Norwegian Gem.
Caribbean Princess and Emerald Princess, a couple of the beautiful ships of the Princess Cruises' fleet, do 7- to 10-night Canada & New England cruises from New York. Royal Princess, Regal Princess, Dawn Princess, and Ruby Princess will also feature itineraries leaving from New York City. Holland America Line offers 10-night Canada & New England cruises on ms Eurodam. Carnival Cruise Line's newest ship, Carnival Horizon, offers round-trip Bermuda and Eastern Caribbean voyages.
If you're interested in taking a luxury cruise from New York, consider those offered by all-inclusive Regent Seven Seas, or those offered by renowned Cunard Line, Crystal Cruises, Oceania Cruises and Silversea Cruises. Those looking for a unique way to travel to and/or from Europe might be interested in one of Cunard's transatlantic voyages aboard Queen Mary 2, typically 7-nights in length (between New York and Southampton, England).
Those looking for a quick getaway should consider a short vacation onboard 4- and 5-night Canada & New England cruises from New York City, available on board Carnival Horizon, Disney Magic, or Regal Princess.

Things to do in New York
These are just a few of the more popular tourist attractions in New York, along with a brief description:
♦ Times Square
One of the main attractions in New York City is Times Square, located in midtown Manhattan. When taking a cruise from New York it would be a shame to miss out on the opportunity to visit this part of the city, especially if you've never been there before. Times Square is filled with huge advertisements, a variety of fabulous restaurants, bars, street vendors, stores and hotels. Among the big names in Times Square are MTV, Hard Rock Cafe and Planet Hollywood. Times Square is also the site of the world-famous ball drop that occurs each New Year's Eve in NYC.
♦ Statue of Liberty
Of course, when taking a cruise from New York, one of the definite highlights is being able to see the Statue of Liberty. This national symbol of the United States is conveniently accessible via ferry from Liberty State Park (in New Jersey) or Battery Park (in New York). While visiting this area, you may also want to check out Ellis Island.
♦ Fifth Avenue
If you're a shopper that's taking a cruise from New York, you may want to pay a visit to Fifth Avenue, one of the world's meccas of shopping. In particular, you'll want to go to the section of Fifth Avenue that's between 34th Street and 59th Street, as you'll find a variety of upscale stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Gucci, Fendi, Harry Winston, Tiffany & Co. and Prada. Fifth Avenue isn't only known for its shopping, as there are many famous landmarks located along this avenue. Among the sites to see are St. Patrick's Cathedral, and further uptown (around the 80s and 90s), are a few museums (including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Guggenheim Museum). |
