Your Kingston Resorts Summer Bucket List With a Bucket-Themed Twist
Posted on August 20, 2025
We’re guessing you’ve definitely heard of the traditional bucket list before, and may even have one yourself. Now, scratch what you already know. For this summer season at Kingston Resorts, we’ve created a playful take on the traditional bucket list, using the “bucket” as inspiration for sun-soaked fun, delicious drinks, and must-do experiences.
Whether you’re spending the day at the waterpark, grabbing a bucket of cold drinks, practicing your swing at the simulators, or sipping on a seaside vacation bucket, these are a few simple bucket-themed pleasures that make summer at Kingston Resorts unforgettable.
Here’s your official summer “bucket” list:
Sun-Soaked Fun Under The Splash Bucket
Looking for some fun under the sun? Head over to Currents Seaside Entertainment, where the giant tipping splash bucket is the highlight for many of our guests, and for good reason. Every few minutes, it fills up with water and releases a refreshing waterfall over the play area of the waterpark, sending laughter and playful screams through the air. Cheer and watch from the sidelines as the little ones have a blast, or stand directly under the splash bucket looking for some action-packed fun for yourself. It’s the best way to spend an afternoon with the family!
Grab Your Drinks by the Bucket
Located just steps away from the pool is Currents’ Poolside Dining. Known for its casual bites, cold drinks, and sunny vibes, it’s the perfect place to cool off with friends or family between dips in the pool. Nothing beats their Mix & Match Beer Buckets—buy four and get one free—from a list of 16-ounce cans, including classic choices such as Budweiser, Michelob Ultra, and White Claw. A bucket of beers at Currents is a relaxed and refreshing kind of treat, essential for sunny afternoons and a vacation state of mind.
Sport a Stylish Bucket Hat
There’s a reason bucket hats are a resort essential. They’re easy to pack and wear, offer sun protection, and not to mention, they’re very stylish—ideal for a walk along the beach or just exploring throughout the resort. If you forgot yours at home, don’t worry. You’ll find a variety of options at our on-site shops, such as the 78 Fitness Apparel Shop, or take a quick and complimentary shuttle to Tanger Outlets for even more options.
Sand Buckets & Beach Day Bliss
Who doesn’t love sipping cocktails out of a bucket? It’s simply one of the most vacation-friendly ways to enjoy your drink, and Wet Whistle should be your go-to spot to grab them. Search for the “Bucket List” on their menu, where you can find their three signature bucket drinks: Caribbean Rum Punch, Tidal Wave, and Surrender the Booty, all served in a fun bucket-style cup meant to keep you refreshed and having fun. They’re perfect for sharing (or not) while lounging at the bar and soaking up the sun, ensuring the vacation vibes are endless.
Tee Off with A Bucket of Balls at the Simulator
You don’t need to hit a full 18 holes to get your golf fix in while at Kingston Resorts. At 78Fitness, you can enjoy the cool, air-conditioned comfort of our state-of-the-art golf simulator. It’s a great spot to come with friends or family, and practice your swing by working through a bucket of balls at your group’s own pace. Whether you’re a seasoned player refining your swing or a beginner just having fun, this is a fantastic indoor activity that keeps the competitive spirit alive without breaking a sweat. As an added bucket-themed bonus, order yourself a bucket of beers while you play!
Capture A Bucket Full of Memories
Vacations may seem like they go by fast, but the memories you make at Kingston Resorts last long after the beach and pool days are over. Keep your camera (or phone) close by during your trip and capture the little moments. Create a shared photo album and let everyone from your group add their favorite shots. By the end of your stay, you’ll have your own virtual “bucket” filled with snapshots of amazing memories, laughter, and unforgettable adventures!
Which Bucket Will You Cross Off First?
There’s something special about a summer spent doing things you love, no matter if that’s making a splash, chasing memorable moments, or simply enjoying the vacation bliss in between. However your bucket list takes shape, Kingston Resorts offers the space, sunshine, and laid-back energy to help you make the most of it. So, grab the bucket of your choice, cross it off your list, and create memories that will last an entire lifetime!
