Hornblower 4th of July Fireworks Cruise

Go big for America's birthday with Hornblower, who hosts not one but three blowout boat parties. Hop aboard the Sensation (sails from Pier 15) for a picnic-style buffet and open bar, plus killer views of the fireworks from the open top deck. On the Hybrid (sails from Pier 15), you'll be treated to the same lavish food and drink spread, and you'll get maximum oohs and aahs from the 360-degree views in the yacht's glass atrium. Or dress to the nines for an elegant evening on the Esprit (sails from Pier 40), which features a six-course dinner, top-shelf booze and after-dinner dancing. And of course, each cruise comes complete with stunning views of the Manhattan skyline and the Statue of Liberty.
