The island that the Statue of Liberty stands on – Bedloe’s Island – is in New Jersey, but actually belongs to New York, mostly. The artificial (landfill) parts of the island and all the waters around it belong to New Jersey, while the statue itself and the center of the island belong to New York. This is clear proof that some judges are idiots. Rather than fight over this stupidity, the two states share jurisdiction. Many years ago New York was also given ownership of Staten Island, a lucky break for New Jersey.

Parking and launch access are free. There can be a good deal of boat traffic on the river, especially ferries, but if you are careful, you can paddle around the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. The museum in the old railroad/ferry terminal is another point of interest.

I have marked Lot C on the bay side, which is the best combination of parking and access to the water. This spot is very popular with windsurfers. You could also use Spermacetti Cove to the north. On a very fine day, you could even try the ocean side.
