8 Summer Adventures — Girls Only!

There's no better way to spend a Summer day than wine tasting. Many wineries have great group deals during the Summer, and an outing like this is a fun way to make memories. Consider buying a signature bottle that you can save for a reunion later in the Winter.

Give Summer BBQs a girlie twist with your best friends. Ditch the beer and burgers by grilling up these Mediterranean sides and sangria. Then, consider watching a few chick flicks by crafting your own outdoor movie screen.

OK, heading to the beach with the ladies is a must! Grab your suit, sunnies, and speakers and hang by the water. There's nothing better than tanning with girls, minus the pressure of having to toss around the football.

While the weather is warm, head to the flea market. It beats going to the mall, and you're sure to leave with some hidden gems (i.e. vintage jewelry or glassware!). You can even add a competitive twist by capping the amount you're going to spend and seeing who can bargain the best deal.

What's a Friday without happy hour? If you haven't already done so, call up the girls and toast to Summer with a cocktail or two. Choose a signature drink (like this classic mojito), whip up a few appetizers, and catch up on life!

Before Summer is over, try to sneak away on a road trip. This is a great way to get out of town without spending a lot of money, even just for a day. No doubt, you'll come back feeling refreshed and with a few "epic" Instagram moments.

PS: Before you head out, don't forget the road trip essentials!

Redefine the term "ladies who lunch" with a brunch. It's the quintessential activity to do with the gals, chatting over mimosas and finger foods well into the afternoon.
