Summer is finally here, and everyone is scrambling to find some fun to get into; Especially couples, who plan on spending a lot of time each other. However, a lot of us draw blanks when it comes to finding fun, romantic date ideas without out-playing the usual dinner or movie.
Never fear, this list should provide some fun date ideas, if not inspire you to come up with some of your own:
1. Watch a Sunrise/Sunset
This is a simple, yet dreamy way to start or end a day with 'bae.' It's free and breathtakingly beautiful.
2. Go to a Drive-in Movie
I know I’m not the only one who's wondered if actual drive-in movies existed. Instead of going to a regular movie at a theatre, try going here instead. Bring your own snacks, and enjoy this rare entity.
3. Make Popsicles/Ice-cream
Everybody deserves a cold treat on a hot, sweltering summer day. Cool down and get creative by making popsicles or homemade ice-cream. There are so many different recipes out there for frozen, delicious indulgences, so step outside the box!
4. Candle-lit Outdoor Dinner
Amongst others on the list, this date has got to be one of my favorites (considering I’m a hopeless romantic.) This dinner date does not have to be anywhere extravagant, you can simply set this up in your backyard, or possibly at a local park.
Prepare a home-cooked meal (or get something to go from one of you guys' favorite restaurants), maybe even get a single rose and place it in a cup of water (for effect), and just enjoy this romantic dinner with each other.
5. Go on a Road Trip
Nothing screams summer vacation like a road trip. Whether its to a local city, or somewhere out of state, road trips are character builders and are bound to bring you and your significant other even closer together.
Take pictures of country sides, and stop and get food from infamous restaurants. It’s a great way to enjoy one another’s company.
6. Star Gazing
Almost like the first date on our list, star gazing is a simple way to unwind and talk about you guys’ day. With all the open sky, there gives room to have boundless conversations, ranging to infinity
7. Water Balloon Fight
Looking for a way to cool down without necessarily getting into a pool, or breaking the bank by going to a water park? A water balloon fight is the way to go. Not only is it fun, but you guys can make a game out of it without being concerned with privacy, nor spending money.
8. Participate in a Color Run
Some couples have fitness goals they want to achieve together, and there is no better way than to participate in a color run. Having ran in one myself, color runs are exciting, and full of friendly individuals. This is just a great way to cheer your 'bae' on and have wholesome fun in the process.
9. Have a Game Night
Although this isn't the most spontaneous thing on this list, its simple, friendly competition that can be spiced up.
10. Create a Memory Box
This is a lovely way to really collect memories during the summer, and an entity to cherish years later.
11. Have a Disney Movie Marathon
Bring out you guys' inner child by watching Disney classics, its sure to bring a sense of nostalgia.
