City of Water Day is a region-wide day of free, family-friendly events on or near the water!

Now in its 18th year, City of Water Day is a region-wide day organized by Waterfront Alliance and New York–New Jersey Harbor & Estuary Program (HEP), to champion a climate-resilient New York and New Jersey harbor.

Dozens of communities across all five boroughs, Westchester and Rockland counties, and New Jersey will host events on and near the water that celebrate the importance of a resilient and equitably shared waterfront.

From free kayaking to rowing to hands-on workshops, these events offer community members opportunities for fun, education, and access to their local waterfront.

This year’s City of Water Day theme is unity in the face of climate change. Stronger Together: Join Your Neighbors in Creating Climate-Ready Communities!
