Welcome to VALLEYS summer 2025 bucket list. The academic year is finally through and it’s time to celebrate, relax and finally do all of the things you’ve been looking at your friends and saying, “We have to do this in the summer!”

Sunrise Sunset
A must for this summer is watching the sunrise and the sunset. Go scope out a cute spot or if you have a beach nearby, grab some towels.
Camping Trip
Go on a camping trip! Or if camping and sleeping on the ground isn’t your thing, rent an RV or an Airbnb by the water in a cute, wooded area. You can make a fire, roast s’mores, watch movies, explore the new area etc. Take some friends and family, or you could even go by yourself just to get away and relax a little!

Cliff Jumping
This may sound scary to some but it doesn’t have to be a big giant cliff. Do some research on the area before going, make sure it is a safe place to be participating in cliff jumping and then take some friends, towels and swimsuits.
Movie/Show Marathon
Not every day over the summer is going to be blue skies and sunshine or maybe you’re just not feeling the outside world that day. This is the perfect time to sit back and binge movies or your favorite TV show. This July a new season of “The Summer I Turned Pretty” is coming out. This series started as books and was then turned into a very summery TV series!

All Nighter
Pulling an all-nighter with your friends always ends up being the best time. You’ll need to be doing things to keep you occupied though. You can go on a long drive, go for a night swim, go to a 24-hour Coney Island and get breakfast, milkshakes or anything that sounds good. Go to the gas station and try out new energy drinks or snacks–everything is more fun when it’s done at three in the morning.
Spa Day
Face masks, hair masks, manicure and pedicure (at home of course). Even though it’s summer you’ll still need to take care of yourself and make sure you’re healthy mentally and physically. A spa night is the perfect cure for both!

Picnic
Make some sandwiches and cut them into cute shapes. Grab some fruit, your favorite drink and any bag of chips! Get a cute blanket and find an open area at a park or a beach and lie it out. You can tan or just talk with the friends or family you bring along!
Every summer has to be the best summer. You should be impulsive and spontaneous. Get yourself that fun drink from the cute coffee shop and a sweet treat while you drive around with your friends going on the adventure you didn’t know of five minutes prior.
