Happy International Picnic Day! 🧺🥖

If you are looking for the absolute perfect spot to celebrate today, head over to Marsha P. Johnson State Park on the Williamsburg waterfront. It offers a great mix of green lawns, pebbled beach areas, and an unobstructed view of the midtown Manhattan skyline.

Pro Tip: Plan your picnic for a Saturday so you can grab food directly from Smorgasburg right next door, and bring your feast straight over to the grass.

Grab your blanket, pack your favorite snacks, and go enjoy the sunshine. Drop a comment with your ultimate picnic-basket essential!

Ready to see Brooklyn from a completely different perspective? 🛶🏭

The Gowanus Dredgers Canoe Club is offering public walk-up canoeing on the Gowanus Canal on select days this June. It is a fascinating, hyper-local look at Brooklyn's industrial history and a chance to spot the unexpected wildlife returning to the waterway.

If you are looking for an unusual weekend adventure that gets you off the sidewalk and right into the borough's history, this is it.

Would you paddle the canal? Tag a friend who is always down for an adventure!

Need a break from the city chaos? We found the ultimate hidden oasis. 🌿✨

Tucked away at the edge of the Brooklyn Navy Yard, the Naval Cemetery Landscape is one of the most peaceful, overlooked spots in the borough. It is a former naval burial ground that has been beautifully restored into a native plant wildflower meadow, complete with a raised, winding boardwalk.

Right now in June, the wildflowers are in full bloom, the pollinators are everywhere, and it is completely silent. It genuinely feels a million miles away from NYC.

If you need a quiet spot to read a book, clear your head, or just touch some grass, this is your sign to visit.

Have you ever heard of this hidden gem? Let us know below!
