Fall Bucket List: Things to Do Before Winter

Fall Bucket List: Things to Do Before Winter

Fall is that sweet spot between the long, sunny days of summer and the quiet chill of winter. The air turns crisp, the leaves burst with color, and cozy moments feel even more inviting. It’s the season to check off those must-do activities before the snow arrives – whether it’s enjoying the outdoors, gathering with friends, or simply slowing down at home. And when the day winds down, there’s nothing better than warming up in your Beachcomber Hot Tub, soaking in the season’s beauty under the autumn sky.

Enjoy Nature’s Last Warmth

Summer may be over, but there can still be some lingering sunshine and warmth as we move into the autumn months. Take advantage of this with some fun outdoor activities.

  • Go for hikes: Embrace the crisp morning air and fall foliage as you find some manageable hikes. Choose trails that you can enjoy in the fewer hours of daylight and enjoy the last of the bright sky.
  • Visit local pumpkin patches or farmers markets: Autumn can be the last chance to visit local farmers markets and is the best time to visit some spooky Pumpkin patches. It’s a great activity for family’s and friend groups!
  • Watch the sunset during a hot tub soak: The evenings are still long enough to enjoy a sunset soak. Make the most of it while you can!

Host Seasonal Gatherings

Take the time to plan and host a fall seasonal gathering. With the right atmosphere and menu, you can bring people together to enjoy the final weeks of calm weather. Some ideas:

  • Dinner party: Autumn could be the last chance to have an outdoor dinner party. With some added heat lamps and cozy cushions and blankets, you can create a cozy atmosphere in your backyard with food and drinks to keep everyone warm. A hot tub soak after could be the perfect addition!
  • Firepit night: A fun night in the backyard with a firepit and smores could be just what you need before snow and rain!
  • Backyard gathering: Host a fun, fall evening with fun activities and snacks. Whether you decide to sit around and chat and catch up, or play some fun games, it is a great way to embrace the cozy evenings.

Get Cozy Indoors

For the colder, wetter days of autumn, you can plan some cozy indoor activities. There are many different fall themed things to do:

  • Fall reading lists or movie marathons
  • Seasonal crafts – candle making, pumpkin carving, knitting

Prepare for Winter Wellness

As the days grow shorter and colder, it’s the perfect time to focus on habits that will keep you feeling strong and balanced through the winter months. Stock up on nourishing, immune-boosting foods like citrus, root vegetables, and hearty greens. Start building a wellness routine that supports your body and mind.

It's also a great time to get your home and garden ready for winter months. Swap your lighter blankets for warm layers, prepare your space for comfort, and ensure your backyard is ready for freezing weather.

Don’t forget your Beachcomber Hot Tub – have the water sparkling and ready for soaks all winter long. An ultimate fall bucket list item for relaxation throughout the cold season.

Adventure Before Snow

There are some things you won’t be able to do once snow hits. From road trips to fall festivals, there is plenty of things you can add to your fall bucket list to make the most of it:

  • Road trips along scenic routes
  • Camping weekends
  • Weekend getaways

The beauty of having a Beachcomber Hot Tub is that once you return from your trip, you can enjoy a soak that gives you an extended vacation feel.

Make Memories

Some people find the winter months difficult. That is why making memories in fall is so important. Savour the season and carry the positivity into the winter. There are a few ways to do this:

  • Take photos
  • Journal about your day
  • Start weekly traditions

A lot of the best memories happen when you are sharing stories in a hot tub. Connect with your family and friends and remind yourself that brighter evenings and warmer days will be back.

Fall is a season of transition – a time to celebrate the last bursts of color, prepare for the months ahead, and lean into rituals that keep us balanced and well. By checking off your fall bucket list, you’re not just making memories, you’re building habits of joy, connection, and wellness. With a Beachcomber Hot Tub as part of your routine, you can enjoy every soak as a reminder to pause, breathe, and take in the season. Winter will come, but with fall well-lived, you’ll step into it feeling refreshed and ready.
