tide and current taxi

Year 2021

Islands

The Tide Taxi is ready for in-person and virtual trips all summer! I started out thinking that the theme for this summer should be Low Tide – it seemed right for the moment, exploring what the tide reveals, looking at the substructure of the city. But then I changed my mind, why lurk around below sea level, always waiting for the right time? The theme for this year is one of my favorites: ISLANDS, a repeat from 2007 maybe, but we deserve it. So if you have a favorite island you have been wanting to visit in the New York Harbor, email me, and I will find the best tide to take us there.
