Go on an Island Tour
Traveling to other islands on an Island Tour is a fun activity to do at any time of the day in New Horizons. You can visit these special islands by purchasing a Nook Miles Ticket.
On these islands, you can do a lot of similar things that you can do on your own island: catch bugs and fish, dig up fossils, and collect fruit; however, there is a chance for finding rare foreign fruit or hybrid flowers.
Visiting another island isn’t too different at night than it is during the day, but it’s an extra opportunity to catch fish and bugs that only appear at night or to get additional crafting materials like wood and iron if you ran out of them on your own island.
Check in With Your Villagers
Talking to your villagers each day can be a good way to earn Nook Miles. Even if you already spoke with them during the day, it’s a good idea to check in with them at night, too.
Villagers often have different dialogue during the night, and it can be interesting to see what they are up to. Some night-owl villagers may be out and about walking around the island, commenting on how it’s late.
Other villagers might be inside their homes. You can tell they are awake if their lights are on. If they are awake, go inside and visit them. They might be crafting something, and they will share the DIY recipe with you.
Redecorate
When all else fails, use the extra time at night to redecorate. New Horizons has so many options for customization, and there are endless ways to make your island your very own.
Using the night hours to decorate the inside of your house is a great idea because there’s no difference between night and day when you’re indoors. Even after the shops are closed, you can still spend time inside your house rearranging the furniture you’ve acquired.
As you can see, there are plenty of activities to do even during the late hours in the game. Those are all of the best things to do at night in Animal Crossing New Horizons. For more tips, tricks, and guides, visit our New Horizons guide wiki.
