5 THINGS YOU MUST DO IN VEGAS THIS SUMMER!

Hello everyone,

The BEST thing about Vegas is that we have longer summers. Summers here extend into the end of September; sometimes even mid-October. I LOVE IT! Not only that, but also, there's so much to do here. Lots to see, experiment and drink! 🤣 

If you're a Las Vegas local you know exactly what I mean. If not, what are you still doing with your life? Get Vegasingggggg! 

This summer is one of the greatest ones I've had hanging out with friends, sharpening my salsa moves and getting back into live music after having everything shutdown because of Covid the previous year. It has been one of these summers I'll definitely remember for a long time. So, to keep the memories alive, I decided to share some of the things I did this summer. Also, these events are still happening, so you can totally take advantage of them and enjoy these last days of summer to the fullest. Sounds Good? 

Take note: A lot of these events appeared to me through ads on my phone. As you can see...I surrendered! Now, I'm an event ad goer who purchases an event after event to help extend my weekends. hahahaha!     

1. Go on a Sunset Yacht Ride at Lake Las Vegas

Cruising on a yacht during sunset has always been a big dream of mine. I saw this yacht tour happening at Lake Las Vegas and jumped at the opportunity right away. It was the perfect way to celebrate my sister's new job! I surprised her with tickets, and well, it was definitely a night to remember. 

We got to unwind to the light summer breeze, with the backdrop of acoustic music playing from the two-story yacht, cute mini bars on each level, and a crowd of people all dressed up in colorful summer attire. Most relaxing yet enchanting getaway because it felt just like a vacation. Pure magic! I totally recommend it if you're looking for something romantic or something new to do in Las Vegas.  

The cruise continues...well into the end of September. Here are the dates if you want to catch one before the end of summer. (Tickets cost $50 per person.)

2. Grab Coffee at Burgundy Café & Bakery

Necesito Cafecito...all the time! 😁 I can't pass a day without a nice iced cup of coffee. Thankfully, with the help of my friends, I found the nicest French bakery, which has endless delicious choices - lots of different croissants, macarons, fresh sandwiches and the most lovely European atmosphere. I love going at the Burgundy café located at the Village Square plaza. Make a stop there, if you've never been! I mean it...it's a special place!

If you're looking to practice your French speaking skills or are homesick for your country, this is the place to brunch, talk and connect with others. And maybe dream a little more about Paris! 😉 I've never been, but I can picture the Eiffel Tower every time I'm there. I mean, how can you not when you've got the purest taste of French cuisine in your mouth? hahaha        

3. Have Fun at Wet 'n' Wild Water Park

Where there's sunshine, there is always time for a wild water park! 🤗

This is literally the best way to spend the weekend with family or friends. So fun - not just laying in the sun and getting a tan, but really getting into your childhood spirit with the most adventurous water rides. I LOVE IT!

We visited Wet "n" Wild first, and then two weeks later, my friends and I did Cowabunga Bay Water Park in Henderson. Both are way fun when you're with the right company. At Cowabunga we stayed all day long, caught the most amazing fireworks and faced pretty intense, big water rides. It was a heart-beating adventure for sure!!! I would recommend visiting both because they each have their own charm and help create such fun lasting summer memories.  

Have you done any awesome water parks recently?   

 

4. Visit Area 15

This is the place everyone keeps talking about whether you're a local or not. It looks unbelievable from what I've seen or heard friends say so far. I'm definitely going to try and visit soon. It's on my bucket list that's for sure!

Everyone has been recommending the Omega Mart Meow Wolf's experience. However, there's also the Van Gogh art exhibition, axes throwing and so much more. If you've already been to Area 15 let me know what part was your favorite and drop me some ideas in the comments section. 

I'll share some photos on my Instagram once I get mesmerized by this place. Follow me so you don't miss it!!!      

5. Catch a Classical Music Candlelight Performance 

Imagine this...a candlelight instrumental concert of the best works of Vivaldi, Beethoven or Chopin. I believe this is going to be hands down the best experience ever. I will be going to the Beethoven one in a week from now and can't wait. Music like this touches the soul, and ohhh my, I'm so sure it's going to be INCREDIBLE!

I'll come back and add photos once this event is over. You can catch these classical music concerts well into the month of November. There is also one that will cover the all time favorite hits of the Beatles if you're a big fan. Truly, you can't go wrong with classical music!

These above and plenty more are the reasons why I love Vegas so much. There's something for everyone to enjoy! How has your summer been so far? Have you done anything fun...anything you would MOST definitely want to relive again!? 🥳
