A short ferry ride from Lower Manhattan will bring you to the serene Governor's Island, which is home to the world famous national monument. Not yet fully operational, the area is open only during summer, but a visit is worthwhile. The scenic island has some amazing views of the water-scape surrounding it, and of the Manhattan skyline. You'll have to bring along your own supplies on this outing—food, water and medicines. Services and facilities, such as restrooms are also limited, so this is a trip for those used to roughing it out. Historically though, the place is crammed with information. After 200 years of restricted military use, it is now open to the public, making it a veritable adventure island for those on a natural treasure-hunt.
