STEEP ROCK BOULDERING:  rock climbing in the middle of the city

Upper East Side
Head over to Steep Rock Bouldering to try it out together. They don’t take reservations, but someone is always around to give you a quick tour before setting you loose to figure out how to climb walls. Surprising bonus: it's open 'til 11pm on weekdays.

PLACES NEAR MUSEUMS TO EAT

GREAT PLACES TO VISIT UPSTATE

MORE UPSTATE

MANHATTAN KAYAK:

Kayak around the city

Midtown
This is a solid choice even if you’re a novice paddler: these guys offer super-easy tours that involve snacks and don’t require strenuous work or upper body strength. If you’re both feeling like a workout, however, you can sign up to paddle all the way around the city or out to the Statue of Liberty.

Take the standard dinner date to a new level 

Little Italy
Miette Culinary Studio offers one-off cooking classes: try out the butchering demo and masterclass, where you learn to prepare things like "a whole grilled grass-fed lamb", or try out one of their delicious -- but less intense -- Italian, Spanish, Indian, or French cooking courses.

Pet a penguin at the Long Island Aquarium

Riverhead
Okay, it’s kind of a hike, so you have to be comfortable enough with each other already to train it, but if getting up close and personal with a penguin sounds like your idea of a good time (and your basic humanity should be questioned if it doesn’t), then consider this a good time.

Day Breaker RAVE

Go hiking and explore antique planes at Floyd Bennett Field

Marine Park
This place was the city’s first airport and makes a great daytime date: explore abandoned hangars, scope out the nature trails, check out their collection of antique planes... even go horseback riding.


Brighton Beach :

Head out to Brighton Beach for Russian cuisine

Brighton Beach
Known as “Little Odessa", Brighton Beach has maybe the best Russian food in the Western hemisphere. Snack on some of the ever-present traditional baked goods (available on basically every street corner), then settle in for a proper meal at Café Restaurant Volna or enjoy dinner-and-a-show at Tatiana.
