On a hot summer day, many people may choose to stay at home and enjoy cool air-conditioning. But at the same time, there are many others looking for ways to escape the heat or searching for fun things to do to beat boredom. If you’re the latter type, today we’ve gathered some interesting summer activities for you. If you still don’t know what to do during this hot season, we have some activities to recommend!
7 Fun Summer Activities That Let You Enjoy Without Worrying About the Heat
To let you fully experience the summer vibes, we’ve brought together 7 summer activities you can enjoy with friends, your partner, or family. If you don’t want to stay home doing nothing this weekend, invite your loved ones to have fun and relax with these activities.
1. Island Trips
Thailand is well known for its beautiful islands. There are small, peaceful islands and larger, more touristy ones. Each island offers many activities to enjoy. For example, Koh Yao Noi has islands, caves, communities, bays, capes, and beaches to explore. If you don’t know where to go during this summer, island hopping is an exciting option worth trying.
2. Snorkeling
Summer is the best season to go to the beach. But just swimming or sitting on the shore might get boring. If you want something more special, to create new travel memories or explore something new, we recommend trying snorkeling. Exploring the beauty of the underwater world will surely captivate you.
3. Cooling Off at a Water Park
If you want thrilling fun in the water but don’t like the stickiness of sea breeze or salty water, going to a water park is the perfect solution. Water parks gather fun rides, challenges, and relaxing features all in one place. Visiting a water park in summer will keep you entertained all day long.
4. Paddleboarding (SUP Boards)
If you enjoy outdoor activities but don’t want anything too intense, something more chill and relaxing, paddleboarding may suit you best. It’s even better if you do it in clear blue waters or rivers surrounded by nature, like the River Kwai Noi in Kanchanaburi. That kind of setting will amplify your experience.
5. Waterfall Visits
One of the best ways to beat the summer heat in Thailand is visiting a waterfall in Kanchanaburi. It’s a chill, nature-based activity that nature lovers will truly enjoy. Most waterfalls in Kanchanaburi are nestled in the forest. Playing in the water, soaking in the cool stream, or relaxing by the falls is a must-do summer activity.
6. Beach Trips
As mentioned earlier, summer is the best time to visit the beach. Even though the sun might be harsh, nothing beats the charm of the sea in summer. You’ll get the full summer experience through swimming, beach walks, or water activities. If you’re a fan of seafood—shrimp, crabs, shellfish, or squid—dining by the sea delivers the freshest, tastiest meals you won’t get from home delivery.
7. Surfing
The final summer activity we recommend is surfing. It’s great for those who love thrill and adventure. Surfing is fun, exciting, and challenging—a perfect water sport for beating the heat. For beginners, we recommend taking basic lessons before heading out to the real waves for safety.
Conclusion
When we talk about summer activities, heat is often unavoidable. But if you want to travel and stay cool, we suggest choosing nature-based activities surrounded by greenery like waterfalls or paddleboarding at the River Kwai Noi in Kanchanaburi.
And if you’re looking for a riverside resort in Kanchanaburi with a cool atmosphere and plenty of activities—such as swimming, boat rides, kayaking, bamboo rafting, or SUP boarding
we recommend staying at River Kwai Jungle Rafts Resort.
