One thing we love more than a weekend? A LONG weekend.
With the August sun shining and the long weekend approaching, this is the perfect opportunity to seize the moment and create some unforgettable summer memories. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or quality time with loved ones- we’ve put together a list of five summer activities that will surely scratch your ‘summer fun’ itch.
Picnic:
Gather your favorite snacks, non-alc products, pack a cozy blanket, and head to your favourite nearby park or beach for a picnic with some of your closest buds! Soak up some sun, play frisbee, or just enjoy the peacefulness that comes along with being there. You can thank us later!
Stargazing Night:
Have you taken a drive away from the city to check out the stars yet this summer? Trust us- take a ride to somewhere scenic, set up a cozy zone and have a good old fashioned star gaze. Use a stargazing app to identify constellations and planets!
Bike or Hike:
Hit the trails and explore the natural wonders around you. Whether it’s a nearby forest, a scenic mountain path, or a lakeside trail- having a bike or hike is a low commitment activity that will leave you feeling refreshed, and in tune with nature. Be sure to bring some water and snacks.
Outdoor Movie Night:
Does your hometown have a drive-in movie theater? If so- check out what’s playing and get the fam together for a classic night of fun. If no- try transforming your backyard or a local park into a charming outdoor cinema. Hang up a white sheet, set up a projector, and cozy up with blankets, pillows and popcorn.
Thrifting/Exploring Local Markets:
If the forecast calls for rain at all (we hope not)- a nice weekend activity involves checking out some secondhand stores and local farmers markets. Discover hidden gems at artisanal bazaars. Stroll through market stalls showcasing fresh produce, handmade crafts, and unique treasures. It’s a wonderful opportunity to support local businesses while finding one-of-a-kind items!
We hope this gave you some long weekend inspo- here’s to an amazing August!
