Summer vacation is the season to explore new places — from the beach to the jungle and everywhere in between. These printable summer scavenger hunts will help keep your kids busy during all of your summer adventures.
Printable Summer Scavenger Hunts
We love to keep busy in the summer but in a fun way! That’s why we created this Summer bucket list Printable and now we are looking for a fun scavenger hunt to keep the kids busy and entertained during their downtime.
The magical thing about scavenger hunts is that they allow your family to explore your vacation spots as part of a fun game. You’ll get more out of your trips by checking off all the things on these lists. Our kids love scavenger hunts!
We have created several types for you to print out depending on your destination. If your kids love nature scavenger hunts, print out a camping-themed hunt! We’ve even created a version for the beach and for your next road trip. We hope you enjoy this free printable scavenger hunt!

Craft supplies you will need
A day trip to the beach is the perfect summer vacation adventure. Make that trip even more fun by surprising your kids with a fun scavenger hunt – we’ve put together a list of things to do for you. This treasure hunt will have them looking for beach staples like towels and shovels and classic beach activities like building sandcastles and finding seashells.
You can’t reach your summer destination without a little travel. Road trips can be stressful for young children, unless you have some fun activities to keep them busy. They can be tasked with spotting road signs, special vehicles and local wildlife. This is a great activity for kids, all from the back seat!
Summer camping trips allow the whole family to spend some time in the great outdoors. Make sure your kids get a taste of the local flora by exploring rocks and flowers (just watch out for the three leaves!).
The whole family can join together for fun camp out activities like bike rides and ghost stories around the campfire. Kids love outdoor scavenger hunts, so be sure to bring our list of scavenger hunt ideas with you on your next camping trip.
Just download this scavenger hunt printable on your computer. Then send them to your color printer to print on plain white paper. Can you complete all three free scavenger hunts this summer?
If you want to plan for the rest of the season as well, print out ours Fall scavenger hunt and or our Spring Scavenger Hunt But!
