Staten Island is the perfect place to get back to nature, just outside the "concrete jungle"! There are miles of hiking trails, three public golf courses, six kayak launch points, and thousands of acres of parks for you to explore.
Quaint bed & breakfasts, high-end hotels and everything in between! There are places to rest your head all across Staten Island.
Staten Island is also a great place for your next conference or convention.
If you love to shop, then you'll love Staten Island! From small boutiques and family owned businesses, to our mall and large commercial developments, you can find whatever you're looking for right here!
