The terminal opened in 2004 and is about 15 minutes from Newark Liberty International Airport. It mainly serves as a departure point for Caribbean and transatlantic sailings rather than a port of call. The immediate surroundings in Bayonne are residential and industrial, without much for tourists to do on foot. The draw is the proximity to New York City, which is roughly 30 minutes by car or a combination of the light rail and PATH train. Most passengers either arrange pre-cruise hotel stays in Manhattan or take a taxi to the terminal on sailing day. Parking at the port is available for passengers driving themselves. ## Quick Facts - **Currency:** USD (US Dollar) - **Language:** English - **Timezone:** America/New_York (UTC-4) - **Tipping:** 15-20% expected at restaurants, bars, taxis ## Location Coordinates: 40.6676, -74.0776 - [Open in Google Maps](https://www.google.com/maps/search/cruise+terminal+Cape%20Liberty%20(Bayonne)/@40.6676,-74.0776,13z) - [Open in Apple Maps](https://maps.apple.com/?q=cruise%20terminal%20Cape%20Liberty%20(Bayonne)&ll=40.6676,-74.0776&z=13) ## Things to Do in Cape Liberty (Bayonne) | Tour | Rating | Duration | Fits Port Day | From | Provider | |------|------|------|------|------|------| | [Washington D.C., Niagara Falls & Philadelphia 3-Day Tour from NYC](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/866cdf9a-f38c-41e7-a942-af81c2c0405d.md?via=markdown) | 4.7β˜… (394) | 72h | – | €304 | Viator | | [Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge Jet Ski Tour of New York](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/e85126af-5741-46d7-bc03-615925281d00.md?via=markdown) | 4.9β˜… (44) | 1h | – | €195 | Viator | | [Private Walking Tour of Hoboken, Only Half a Mile from Manhattan!](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/fe9c52a0-38b6-446b-9254-8a2b1346c711.md?via=markdown) | 5β˜… (36) | 3h | – | €163 | Viator | | [5-Day Niagara Falls, Toronto, Montreal and Quebec City from NYC](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/3bdc5b79-a2e5-4296-92a2-e62fed411061.md?via=markdown) | 4.7β˜… (41) | 120h | – | €1,120 | Viator | | [2-Day Niagara Falls US, WatkinsGlen w/Scenic Hotel Upgrade Option](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/1319e096-8581-4565-b04a-f0c49f60dcda.md?via=markdown) | 4.4β˜… (45) | 48h | – | €274 | Viator | | [New York Skyline Magic - The Real Skyline With a Real Local](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/6988ee7b-79a0-468a-a647-a33260a5f8ff.md?via=markdown) | 5β˜… (25) | 3h | – | €64 | Viator | | [The Manhattan Loop and Statue of Liberty Jet Ski Tour (2.5 hr)](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/597cc2af-fc3f-4cbd-b8ee-44dc4b93745c.md?via=markdown) | 5β˜… (25) | 2h 30m | – | €349 | Viator | | [Philadelphia and Washington D.C. 2-Day Tour from New York](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/a98c2fad-d25c-4407-a6e8-9a7a3a8185d2.md?via=markdown) | 4.4β˜… (30) | 48h | – | €342 | Viator | | [Niagara Falls, Toronto and Thousand Islands 3-Day Tour from NYC](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/c52c89e5-9b04-4b53-8c6b-9f6a702e5d7f.md?via=markdown) | 4.8β˜… (18) | 72h | – | €626 | Viator | | [City Cruises New Jersey: Signature Lunch Cruise](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/77335abc-f902-443a-8be5-6a1e95153c0c.md?via=markdown) | 3.9β˜… (32) | 2h | – | €104 | Viator | | [Half Day New York City Private Tour](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/69f67829-cba9-4a71-a475-99a67baa0d1b.md?via=markdown) | 4.2β˜… (22) | 4h | – | €526 | Viator | | [Greenwich Village Walking Tour](https://cruisello.com/gogogo/excursion/10c00d41-47ff-4f44-aace-34af1611a06e.md?via=markdown) | 3.9β˜… (28) | 3h | – | €32 | Viator | Total review count and overall rating based on Viator and Tripadvisor reviews. ## Nearby Ports - [New York](https://cruisello.com/destinations/us-canada-east-coast/new-york.md): 7 nm - [Philadelphia](https://cruisello.com/destinations/us-canada-east-coast/philadelphia.md): 66 nm - [Newport](https://cruisello.com/destinations/us-canada-east-coast/newport.md): 134 nm ## Cruise Lines Serving This Port - [Royal Caribbean](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean.md) ## Cheapest Available Sailing **[View this cruise β†’](https://cruisello.com/cruises/14-night-cruise-from-cape-liberty-bayonne~RCL-ODYSSEY-20280409-14.md)** - **Price:** €1,076 per person (€2,152 total for 2 guests) - **Cruise Line:** [Royal Caribbean](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean.md) - **Ship:** [Odyssey Of The Seas](https://cruisello.com/cruise-lines/royal-caribbean/odyssey-of-the-seas.md) - **Duration:** 14 nights - **Departure:** 2028-04-09 - **Itinerary:** 14 Night Cruise from Cape Liberty (Bayonne) ## Browse Cruises - [Cruises departing from Cape Liberty (Bayonne)](https://cruisello.com/cruises.md?departurePorts=cape_liberty_bayonne) (1 sailing) - [All cruises visiting Cape Liberty (Bayonne)](https://cruisello.com/cruises.md?stopoverPorts=cape_liberty_bayonne) (2 sailings) ## Browse - [US & Canada East Coast cruises](https://cruisello.com/destinations/us-canada-east-coast.md) - [All Destinations](https://cruisello.com/destinations.md) - [All Cruises](https://cruisello.com/cruises.md)
