I made myself a summer bucket list last year, and I loved it, so here I am with another one for 2024!

I don’t know about you, but even though summer is long (especially in Malta!), it goes by so quickly that I feel like I haven’t made the best of it.

So once again, I’m being intentional. I’ve come up with a list of things that I really want to do and compiled a fun summer bucket list, and if I don’t manage to tick off all of them, at the least I want to tick off most.

Some of the things on my summer bucket list are simple. Some are more elaborate. Some are specific, and others are generic.
Let me just dive in.

My 2024 summer bucket list

1. Enjoy a nightime beach cookout.
2. Go fishing at sunset and munch on traditional ‘hobz biz-zejt’ (bread with tomato paste & tuna).
3. Enjoy our terrace regularly during the evenings.
4. Go for a night hike.
5. Sleepover on the boat.
6. Make nice cream.
7. Organise a night picnic.
8. Spend as many Fridays eating dinner on the beach & swimming as possible.
9. Attend a free, local, outdoor concert.
10. Go for a quick dip after my morning walk a few times (mid-week).
11. Put together a summer playlist.
12. Watch the fireworks.
13. Go to a local festa.
14. Go for a walk at sunset on one of the many seaside promenades.
15. Have an outdoor family game night.
16. Try a new food.
17. Pick up a pizza and eat it by the beach in the evening.

I’m going to print this out and keep it handy, so I can plan to make these things happen. I wonder how many I’ll be able to check off by the end of summer? This is one thing that will be making an appearance on my Instagram – that will help keep me accountable!

Are you putting together your own summer bucket list? I hope I’ve inspired you to make memories count even more than ever this summer!

Love,
