Top 10 BY KATRINA MEDOFF Eat in a restaurant’s backyard seating area. Bareburger (33- 21 31st Ave.), Sek’end Sun (32-11 Broadway), Milkflower (34-12 31st Ave.) and many, many more have great outdoor seating areas away from the hustle and bustle of the sidewalks. Or, grab a coffee and a book and relax on the sleek wooden benches in the area behind Gossip Coffee (37-04 30th Ave.). 3 Practice your vinyasa outdoors. 5 Bring your mat for free weekend classes by the Yoga Room in Gantry Plaza State Park and Astoria Park (theyoga room.com). Or move through your asanas on Saturdays and Sundays at the free classes in Socrates Sculpture Park (socratessculpturepark.org). Dive into Astoria Pool. Cool off during the heat wave by gathering your family or friends to go for a swim at our neighborhood’s own Olympic-sized pool. Kayak on the East River. Sign up for free paddling at Anable Basin or Hallets Cove at licboathouse.org. Feel the wind in your hair on the East River Ferry. Use the subway to Brooklyn Bridge Park in Dumbo, and when you’ve finished exploring, take the ferry home to the Hunter's Point South terminal in Long Island City. Catch an outdoor movie. See pages 17 and 21 for outdoor film spots in the area. Photo: Ethan B.
