Welcome to the Downtown Boathouse
All of our activities are free and open to the public
First come, first served (we do not accept reservations)

The Downtown Boathouse is an all volunteer-run nonprofit organization dedicated to providing free public access to the harbor in New York City through public kayaking programs. Our mission is to encourage safe public use of the harbor waters of New York City and thereby provide residents of this space-constrained city with increased recreational opportunities. We support our operations exclusively through volunteers and with your public donations.

If you can not find an answer to question on the website or need to get in touch with us, we will try to get back to you as soon as we can but as an unpaid all volunteer organization we have limited resources. Please be patient.
