South Street Seaport is known primarily for its shopping and dining, but it is more than that. The seaport was built in 1967 and designed to represent New York in the 1800s. The not-so-tall tall buildings and cobblestone roads will make you think you are in a time not so long ago, but only for a second.
There are many different things to do at South Street Seaport, but instead of listing the shops and restaurants, let’s focus on some of the extraordinary attractions and events.
Water Taxi Beach
The beach just opened up last week on April 30th so it’s about time to get some sun. The beach offers recreation like miniature golf, volleyball, or a ride on The Shark or New York Water Taxi. After dark, you can listen to live music, DJs and drink.
Bodies
If you are in for a bit of the macabre, you can check out the bodies exhibit. These are real humans who have donated their bodies to science and have been dissected and put on show for you all to see. This can be a bit much for some. The sheer realization that it used to be a living person you are staring at. Check out the official Bodies Website if you are unsure.
Celebrate Cinco de Mayo
It’s only two days away, and you can celebrate Cinco de Mayo at South Street Seaport. What’s not to love about two dollar margaritas at Clipper City?
