Dock wisdom

City Island is 5 minutes east and has one of the best small-boat fishing fleets in the Bronx -- weekend charters fill fast.

The Sound is much calmer than the open Atlantic -- first-time kayakers and paddleboarders will prefer it.

Blue crabs are in the shallows all summer. A bucket, a net and a piece of chicken on a string is all you need.

City Island Sailing Club offers beginner lessons on weekends -- book a week ahead in July and August.
