Staten Island Ferry

A way to see the Statue of Liberty for free is to take a ride on the Staten Island Ferry. The ferry takes us from the Whitehall Terminal Manhattan to St. George Terminal Staten Island (and back to Manhattan). Since there are numerous ferry departure times, there really isn't a need to check the timing beforehand.
