Spending the Longest Day of the Year at Sandals

June 21, 2024 - Sandals Resorts - Watersports

Did you know that the 21^st June is the longest day of the year, also known as summer solstice? On this day we enjoy more daylight hours than on any other day, meaning there’s even more time to pack in all kinds of activities. This got us to thinking about how we’d spend the day if we had this many hours at a Sandals Resort...

Eat

One of our favourite parts of any day at Sandals is all the food and drink, so you certainly have to set aside some time in your day to try as much of it as possible. Our Five-Star Global Gourmet Dining encompasses up to 16 restaurants per resort serving 21 different cuisines, each just as delicious as the last.

Pick between a breakfast buffet or à la carte dining experience in the morning, freshly baked pastries in Parisian style cafes always go down a treat!

Perhaps pizza by the pool for lunch? Or Mediterranean cuisine with a view? Whether you want a quick snack or a sit down meal, there are plenty of midday options available for your lunching needs.

Discover gourmet delights in every setting come dinner time. Barefoot dining on the beach as the sun goes down, a romantic candlelit meal for two in an elegant restaurant, whatever you fancy it’s on the menu. Italian or Caribbean? French or Indian? Even on the longest day of the year you’ll be wishing for more time to fit it all in!

Relax

A Sandals holiday is all about escaping the 9 to 5 grind in favour of more relaxing pursuits, so allot some time for some much needed R&R.

Who could come to the Caribbean and not spend some time on the beach? Each Sandals resort is situated on a pristine beach, so grab your sun cream and a towel and set up camp on the soft sands.

Maybe lying poolside is more your thing? In which case grab yourself a sun-lounger and settle in, of course keeping your thirst quenched with a refreshing cocktail from the well-stocked pool bar.

Fancy some pampering? Be sure to find some time in your day to head to the Red Lane® Spa where a range of relaxing treatments are on offer to help melt your cares away.

Experience

Holidays are just as much about having fun as chilling out, and there are plenty of ways to fill the day at Sandals and create some great holiday memories.

Get your adrenaline pumping with our wide range of water sports. From snorkelling to water-skiing, there are so many exhilarating options to choose from at Sandals, suitable for those of all abilities.

If you get bored of the water or just prefer to keep your feet firmly on land, make some time in your day for our variety of land sports. Golf, tennis, beach volleyball, fitness centres and much more are all available to make those lazy Caribbean afternoons a little more active.

Even we have to admit there's more to the Caribbean than our resorts, so why not opt for an exciting Isand Routes excursions and get out and find out what else this destination has to offer? 

As you can see there’s plenty to be done at a Sandals resort, so much that you’d struggle to fit it all in even on the longest day of the year! Our advice? Book at least 7 or more nights to make sure you can experience all that Sandals has to offer! Click here to book your next Luxury Included® Sandals escape.
