Answer: Absolutely yes. Dinner cruises in New York are very suitable for children, and many families choose them. Most cruise companies in New York that offer dinner cruises also provide a special kids’ menu, and children usually enjoy the experience just as much as adults.

In addition, in most cases children also pay a reduced ticket price. On City Cruises dinner cruises, for example, children aged 4 to 12 pay a discounted rate, while children under the age of 4 are exempt from payment and can join for free. A similar policy can be found on NYC Water Cruises dinner cruises and with several other operators. That said, there are some more upscale and premium dinner cruises that require children to be at least 6 years old.

Overall, children are generally welcome on all types of harbor dinner cruises in New York.
