Did you know you can cruise past the Statue of Lib Did you know you can cruise past the Statue of Liberty for free?! 🗽 If you’re not too keen on paying to go to the island itself, the Staten Island Ferry will take you pretty close to the Statue of Liberty - and it’s totally free! 😆 The only downside is that you’ll need to hop on a ferry back to Manhattan, which takes around 25 minutes each way. However, there’s a small shopping complex on Staten Island that you can walk around before getting the ferry back too 🛍️ • • • • • • • • • #statueofliberty #statueofliberty🗽 #nyc #visitnyc #newyork #newyorkcity #kristatheexplorer #travelblogger #traveltips #travel #freethingstodo #thingstodonyc #nyctravel #statenislandferry #freenyc #manhattan
