The adventure area was awesome for kids and adults. Good and drinks are plentiful and spread out over the island so nothing was too insane. Adults can enjoy the lawn and walks (or biking) around the park. Make sure to bring own food and water (there are fountains) or you'll be spending more than you want to.

Fantastic! Glad we finally came. MUCH larger than I thought it was. Bikes are a great idea to explore the island. Very good taco place or being lunch and a blanket and just hang out. Ferry from Pier 6 in Brooklyn Bridge Park made for an easy and scenic (though brief) ride. Relaxing and is a great example of yet another place in NYC where you just kind of pinch yourself and say \am I really in the largest city in the US\? Seems remote yet the skyscrapers of lower Manhattan are right across the water.

One of my absolute favorite places to visit and relax, get away from the city hustle and bustle. You take the ferry over and feel like you’re in a whole new world! They’ve listened to visitors about having free WiFi in the park, more bathrooms, and water stations. You have so much space to social distance. I love the lavender farm, it smells beautiful going past it. The red chairs are iconic. The views are unbeatable from the hills. Hammock Grove is so relaxing, you feel like you’re in the Caribbean. Just wish they had more food options open on other days besides the weekend. It’s beautiful in all the seasons that it’s open. Blooms in springtime, relaxing in the summer, and foliage and pumpkins in the fall.

Had a very good time over there. The ferry was free for NYC ID holder so that was a good surprise. Big enough to spend the whole day looking around for a whole day. My only complaint is they don’t have enough good food on the governors island itself. Governors island itself is pretty clean and all.

A brief ferry ride to the Governor's Island. Small enough island to enjoy in one day either by bike riding or walking. Fair amount of kid options to play and enjoy, especially the Playground place. Food options are just ok and most of the food trucks seem to only take cash. Usually an event going on do you can watch and enjoy.
