By Sea...
City Island is not only easy to approach by boat, unlike other yacht clubs and marinas on Long Island Sound, many great seafood
restaurants, antique shops, museums, grocery stores, laundromats, delis and a pharmacy are all just a few blocks away.
From the West:
Once you go under the Throgs Neck Bridge, you'll see City Island off to Port. Once you clear R"48", head almost due North,
being sure to keep R"2" and N"2A" (Big Tom) to Starboard. Contact the CIYC Launch on VHF 72 on the outside of our mooring area
and they will guide you to a guest mooring.
From the East:
After Execution Light, continue almost due West (keeping Hart Island to Starboard) for a little over 3 nautical miles. Turn
North rounding R"2" at Big Tom and continue to round N"4". Contact the CIYC Launch on VHF 72 on the outside of our mooring area
