About SeaGlass Carousel at The Battery

Ride iridescent fiberglass fish through a glowing underwater fantasy at the tip of Manhattan.

Tucked into The Battery at Manhattan's southern edge, this glass pavilion turns a simple carousel ride into a dreamlike trip beneath the waves.

What you'll see and do - Climb inside one of 30 large, iridescent fish that glide and twirl rather than the usual carousel horses - Feel like you are swimming through an underwater world, with vivid colors and integrated music heightening the sensory journey - Take in harbor and cityscape views from the carousel's location within The Battery - Appreciate it as a piece of public art inspired by the park's origins as an aquatic environment
