Seaglass Carousel

Who doesn’t love a carousel? Kick the whimsy up a notch with a visit to the Seaglass Carousel, a pastel-perfect underwater themed carousel in Battery Park. And at 3 1/2 minutes it’s a slightly longer ride than the norm (which helps justify the $5.50 admission). Combine this activity with a ride on the Staten Island Ferry or visit to the Statue of Liberty and you’ve got a perfect day in lower Manhattan.

Location:

The Battery (enter park across from 17 State Street)

Tickets:

$5.50 pp or $50 for a 10-pack (must be purchased in person)

Hours:

Seaglass Carousel is now open year round! But it’s best to check their website or social media for the most up-to-date hours as they may shift, especially during the winter season (although generally, it’s 11am-9pm).
