With the summer comes lots of things to do outdoors in Paris. And with beautiful Paris as the backdrop, what more heavenly a stage could be set for just about any activity? Naturally, those cafés and restaurants which have the capability, open their windows and doors to spill their tables onto the sidewalks and “places” so that you can dine and drink casually in the warm air. Those that are on the sunny side of the street do best when the weather is cooler but sunny, and those on the shady side of the street profit when it’s on the warmer side. Either way, you have your choice.

Leave your apartments and hotel rooms behind and head for the streets. Image may be NSFW. From TODAY until August 20th, head for the beach! Paris Plages, all three of them, open for ‘business,’ closing off the riverside thoroughfares to become sandy beaches, green lawns, sporting courts, swimming pools, refreshment stands and pedestrian walks From the Louvre to Pont de Sully was the first and most ‘classic’ beach spanning three kilometers featuring a swimming pool, concert stage, and open-air attractions such as rollerblading, tai-chi, wall climbing, boules, etc. and areas for refreshment, play and whiling away the time in deck chairs by the river. Port de la Gare is at the foot of the Bibliothèque Nationale François Mitterrand Library and near the floating j2999éphine Baker “Piscine sur Seine.” in the 13th arrondissement. It is promoted as the “intellectual” beach escape with free newspapers, books on loan, a café and wi-fi hotspot, and art classes. The boats moored by the banks of the Seine offer a variety of musical shows in the evenings. The Bassin de la Villette is the latest addition to Paris Plages, having opened in 2007 in the 19th district. It stretches from Rotonde de Ledoux (near Jaurès Métro station) to the former Magasins Généraux (in rue de Crimée) and focuses on water sports — row boats, kayaks, pedal boats and dinghies alongside the quaint restaurants and boules courts along the quay of the basin. The beaches are open all day from 8 a.m. to midnight, free of course! Image may be NSFW. The Paris Jazz Festival at the Parc Floral is winding down this week, ending next Sunday, with Bumcello and guest performer Nathalie Natiembé, then the Erik Truffaz Quartet with guest performer Christophe.
