NYC: Boats, Beer, and B…
New York City may be a hustling and bustling metropolitan, but it does not fall short when it comes to aquatic and nautical themed activities. Visitors and residents of the Big Apple should never fret when seeking out their own personal water world the next time they want to capitalize on their day drinking opportunities, for NYC is chock full of marinas, boats and beer. Here are some essential things to consider when planning your fun in the sun.
Barbecue
Maybe New York isn’t widely recognized for its open pit cuisine, but that shouldn’t stop the grill from glowing. A short trip to places such as Pelham Bay Park, located right outside of the Bronx, can allow for plentiful burgers and brats while you sip on a Summer Shandy. Designated barbecue areas exist all around the city including Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island. Make the most out of your summer by investing in a cooler and a bag of charcoal.
Bikinis
If outdoor life isn’t your cup of tea, then perhaps consider a Long Island iced tea at your neighborhood bikini bar. New York is full of them. Port 41 is the prime destination after a long work week where patrons can indulge in service from bartenders in bikinis. If a nice tan is on your agenda, then consider stopping by an urban surf shop such as Breakwater Surf Co. near Rockaway Beach to scoop up some new swimwear.
Beaches
As mentioned, New York has surf shops, which means it has even more beaches. Fort Tilden Beach, Jacob Riis Park, Jones Beach, Robert Moses State Park, Coney Island Beach, and Manhattan Beach are all popular waterfront destinations where you can lay out a blanket, dig your toes in the sand, crack open your favorite brew, and soak up the small joys in life. Be sure to pay attention to local listings that might offer more information on seasonal events such as the Back to the Beach concert festival, art walks, or even Coney Island Cyclones games.
