A ROLLERCOASTER ON THE WATER!

Operated by the world-renowned Circle Line, The BEAST is New York’s only jet-powered thrill ride speedboat attraction! Don’t be fooled – The Beast isn’t just a monster on the surface.

The BEAST has 1400 BHP-horsepower with two ZF 3000 marine gears powered by twin Hamilton Jets, rocketing you through the water at a heart-pounding 40 knots (about 45 mph)!

ο»Ώ THE RULES

YOU’LL GET WET!

Not definitely, but it usually happens. So leave your laptop at home.

IT’S EXTREME!

HOLD ON TO YOUR HAT!

Things like hats and sunglasses can fly away during the boat ride.

IT’S LOUD!

Twin jet engines, what do you expect?

40β€³ OR TALLER!

You have to be this tall to ride. That’s 102cm in the rest of the world.

NO LAPS!

Kids must be able to sit in their own seat without assistance.

SIT DOWN!

…and buckle up. Passengers must be seated at all times!

NO SMOKING!

There is no smoking allowed while riding The Beast.

NO RAIN, ONLY SHINE!

The Beast does not go out when it’s raining. Check beforehand by calling our box office to confirm.

Sights, Speed & Splash

Once you’re strapped in and the Beast roars to life, get ready to rocket down the Hudson at 45mphβ€”blasting past some of NYC’s most iconic landmarks. From the soaring towers of Lower Manhattan to the historic Brooklyn Bridge, every second is packed with views and velocity.

But don’t blinkβ€”there’s a quick stop near the Statue of Liberty for a perfect photo op (and maybe a selfie with Lady Liberty herself). Along the way, our captains keep the energy high with fun facts and fast jokes about the sights speeding by.
