Princess Bay
Princess Bay is a tucked-away anchorage on the south shore of Staten Island where you drop the hook in calm, sheltered water just off the shore. The surrounding neighborhood has a quiet, residential feel far from the bustle of Manhattan, and the natural shoreline gives you a genuine sense of escape within New York City's waters. It's a solid overnight stop if you're working your way along the coast.
