deVivre takes your summer weekend on a much needed breezy adventure
deVivre takes your summer weekend on a much needed breezy adventure

Hop a ferry and head to the shore to celebrate summer deVivre-style.

{If you're anything like us you've been doing your best to make the most of the incredible summer weather we've been having so far. From rooftops to backyard gardens, from going all out and catching a riverside concert to staying in and savoring a cool glass of Sancerre on the stoop, getting outside is the best way to hit your NYC summer groove. Keeping cool in the neighborhood is always a great idea, but don't forget that NYC is secretly home to some of the best beaches, boardwalks, and boat rides on the East Coast. If you want to throw your summer plans a curve ball, hop a ferry and head to the shore (or for you non-beach bums who prefer an actual curve ball, check out our stadium picks).
