Thank you Randy and Hailey for another fun adventure. Kayaking is a great way to enjoy the water and to explore places not accessible by land. I look forward to your videos and I certainly appreciate all the time and effort you spend making them. God Bless you both !! ... Robin :-)

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Appreciate your words, brother! Thankful the videos bring you joy!

@DestinationEarth 3 года назад

The boat owners there don't seem to be having much luck with any of their boats! lol. You would have no idea a place like that existed so close to the city. Another great outing. Everything looked nice and crisp despite using just the GoPro - you made it look good!

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Appreciate that, Josh! Still getting used to the new channel name... although I think it's a nice change!

@MichaelYoungblood1 3 года назад

Nice little excursion. Pretty incredible that you can find some semblance of solitude within the confines of NYC. I am very envious that you get to chillax when on the water. It is just the opposite for me. I never get a break when we canoe or kayak.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

haha! Too bad it's not always this way for us! Cool little place up there in the big city.

@kaylasmith1515 3 года назад

Who knew there was such a pretty spot right near the city?? So cool to explore!

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Yeah, not far from home!

@CampTravelExplore 3 года назад

What a great episode guys! Loved the kayaking and you did a great job on this episode!! Well done Randy!!!

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Thanks so much, Tom! Hope the family is doing well.

@adventuringoutdoorswitheric 3 года назад

Well this is a bit different but it's still part of the national park system. You didn't have to go too far from home which is always great. I'm really surprised we didn't hear any planes flying over you being so close to the airport. Thanks for sharing brother!

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Good observation, Eric! I was thinking (hoping) we would get buzzed by some massive international planes, but nothing. They must have been coming in from the north.

@romanandfizah 3 года назад

Such great video guys, awesome footage and trendy ! New subscribers from Malaysia & France 😊😊

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Much appreciated! :)

@TravelSmallLiveBig 3 года назад

Awesome! Who knew, right? And sloppy waves and white caps never show up on camera - it always looks way better and calm on video.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

That is a great point, Heather! So weird how the rough seas look less rough on the video!

@r1sabotage 3 месяца назад

Nice video. I just went there this weekend. That was my first time kayaking in Ocean water. I have to say, it was terrifying for me. I do not know how to self rescue yet, so the next time I come here is after I'm confident I can get back in my kayak if I capsize because of the waves.

@21Swayzee 3 года назад

Way to rock out the go pro, and get out the paddle and give er! Nice series of islands to paddle by, man total different look to where we paddle here in N. ont. Nice urban escape to get out and enjoy an ocean breeze. The islands were more untouched then what I was expecting. Hope summer is Amazing! Keep on soaking in those summer days, 2021 style, must have been a fun edit to relive an adventure from last summer, man time flies.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Appreciate your kind and thoughtful words! Also enjoyed your remarks regarding the edit - believe we share the same heart on this one. Much more fun to edit and though possibly less love from the YT community, the best memoires for our family! Take care!

@MarkH163 3 года назад

Wow, nice video! And it's a cool local adventure for you too!

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Thanks, Mark! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

@jameshouse1268 3 года назад

Never would have expected a place like this right by NYC! It sure looked like a fun day…and great kayaking exercise. Thanks for putting this together. Take care always.

@jymnmeier3527 3 года назад

I'm always amazed at natural discoveries in places you would not expect. Went kayaking with my daughter 3 weeks ago in the Willamette River just steps from our home. So much fun. Looks like ocean kayaking is a tad more work! Great video as always and much love

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Thanks, Jymn! Heard about this place, but it was the first time paying it a visit. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

@NickandRachel 3 года назад

Never heard of that place before. It definitely is cool going somewhere you can only get by a kayaking or hiking! I would imagine there's probably a couple of washed-up boats out there on them Islands. Thanks for sharing!

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Thanks, Nick! Always run into bizarre stuff in NYC!

@andyvawser4943 3 года назад

Even near the biggest of cities, count on Randy to find scenic places with not a soul around! Amazing what a little research and some sweat will get you for a peaceful day. Hope you are doing well brother and that you didn't get too drenched with the storm that buzzed by you recently.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Hey Andy, we are doing well. Actually just returned from a brief NP trip up in N. Minnesota (with Julie and Shane). Enjoyed the comment! All the best to you family as well!

@TrekkerPat 3 года назад

Pretty cool. Where I spent part of my childhood area, swimming at Riis Park.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Really cool, Pat! Spent a lot of time a little down L.I. growing up with my cousins in Massapequa (near Jones Beach).

@PFAM5 3 года назад

Really interesting! Great footage on the water. Cool to come across an abandoned boat.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Enjoyed the remarks, thanks!

@NationalParkWild 3 года назад

Looks like fun! I’d love to go here one day.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Unique stop right there in NYC!

@MagellanandGreyhound 3 года назад

We've been meaning to do this. You know what they say? You never do things where you live. Also, nothing wrong with letting the person in front paddle while you rest. They'll never know if you never tell them. 😂

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Good words across the board! :)

@birdman5223 3 года назад

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Appreciate that, Mark!

@MsArtemis01 3 года назад

Someone is going find that boat and pawn it off after watching this video.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

:) So weird to see that boat just abandoned.

@Mikey-Likes-It_101 3 года назад

Randy, Great adventure for you and Hailey (Happy Birthday Hailey). Like others, I am surprised this is a National Recreation Area rather than a NY State Park, but maybe because of all the federal land. It looks clean in you video (except the abandoned boats, which the USCG may want to know the locations you found them). There are probably more boats since HENRI. how nice it is to enjoy without the crowds. Thank you for wearing lifejackets on the ocean! I love the sailboat. THANK YOU FOR TAKING US KAYAKING, . . . Mike

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Hey Mike! Good words, my friend! It's in the "Gateway" NP Recreation Unit, composed of three locations - Brooklyn, Staten Island and Sandy Hook (NJ).

@jimgreen5788 3 года назад

Hailey/Hayley (?), I share the sentiments you expressed at around 6:30. I've visited Isle Royale, Mackinac Island, Washington Is. in Wisconsin's Door County, Canada's Prince Edward Is. and Newfoundland, and Dry Tortugas, and I'd like to visit Channel Islands and Kenai Fjords for those same reasons.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Hey Jim, just got back from beautiful Isle Royale! Nice to check that one off the list!

@jimgreen5788 3 года назад

@@AmericasParks , pretty place, isn't it, Randy? Did you camp? I "wimped out", and got a room, and when I arrived in the rain 2 summers ago, I was glad I had done so. Also, nothing at all against Natalie. Nevertheless, it was good to see Hailey/Hayley [sp.]).

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

@@jimgreen5788 Yeah, we camped at Isle Royale. A room would have been so much better as I got food poisoning that night and thought I was going to die. Not easy in the tent with the bathroom a 1/2 mile away! :(

@jimgreen5788 3 года назад

@@AmericasParks , that's tough! But, on the up side, at least you weren't so sick, you were afraid you wouldn't die. : ))

@THEADVENTURECHANNEL11 3 года назад

Great video. Always loved kayaking. Gotta do it on my channel.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Right on! Fun and makes for sweet video - but a little challenging with the water and constant motion! Take care!

@AlanMETALMAN 3 года назад

Great bonding time and super fun kayaking. Unsure which version of Go Pro you are using Randy but I am still pn the 7 Black and real happy with it, heard so many people who upgraded to the 8 and specifically the 9 Black, who are having awful problems with it. Now that was some find on the beach, a boat.....like your daughter said, must have been a float away. Fun trip, precious memories, cheers Alan

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Yeah, using the Black 8 - works great for me, but just about anything is better than my old 2014 model! :)

@markakira8988 3 года назад

You found my boat! Was your minivan responsible for all those donuts and peel outs on the runway? I've fished by the Verrazano many years ago, they have fluke and those giant striped bass around there. They also have hundreds of annoying wild turkeys by the boardwalk. They are such a nuisance.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Hey Mark, pretty cool area out there. We live just a little south on the NJ shore and the fisherman are telling me the big game fish are super-close to the shore this year.

@SwiftyTravels 3 года назад

I love kayaking! You guys had the place to yourselves!! Is this where are the sharks have been hanging out this year?!?😬😬😂😂

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Sure hope not! :) Although they are making an appearance a little north up in the Boston area.

National Park in Brooklyn?!!! Get the hell out of Dodge! There's no National Park in Brooklyn--is there? Well, now I 've seen it all.

@THEADVENTURECHANNEL11 3 года назад

National Recreation Area.

@AmericasParks 3 года назад

Yeah, not one of the "major parks", but part of the 400+ parks in the national park system. Technically it's "Gateway National Recreation Area" - three units (Brooklyn, Staten Island and Sandy Hook (NJ)). Thanks for joining us, John!
