Digging your feet into the sand or tubing around the lake with friends. Tasting the sweetness of homemade ice cream or relaxing on a hammock while absorbed in a good book.

Hands down, one of the best summer activities is rounding up a group of friends to go and enjoy rocking out with our favorite artists all night long. Find the nearest venue, and find out who is coming to you this summer!
On a bit of a budget?
That’s okay too! Many stadiums have plenty of lawn seats that are just as fun. Just remember to pack a cooler and your favorite yard games. After all, the tailgate party is half the fun!
9. The Beach
Is it really even summer if you don’t hit the beach?
I think it’s safe to say there’s nothing more relaxing than lounging by the ocean letting the waves crash over your sandy feet. What better way to enjoy the summer than by building sandcastles or boogie boarding through the waves. Take a trip up the coast of Cali or explore the beauty of the New England shorelines. No matter where you end up or what your age that salt water air has something to offer everyone!
10. Whale Watch
If you’ve never seen a 66,000 pound mammal dive out from the depths of the sea then this summer is the time to cross it off your bucket list. Set sail and have the experience of a lifetime observing marine wildlife up close and personal in their natural habitat. Whale watches are the perfect opportunity to see all these different types of whales, dolphins, and other marine life creatures first hand. So grab your sunglasses, sunscreen, and get ready for your next high speed adventure. Just watch out for the splash zone!
