It means to lie in the sun and soak up the heat. Reptiles and other cold-blooded animals need to bask in order to get energy, since they do not produce it themselves as mammals do. In figurative senses, it can mean to receive enjoyment or satisfaction from being in a particular place or situation and remaining there, as to bask in the limelight.
