As a student at the College of Charleston, there are an endless amount of date ideas you and your sweetie can do. From personal experience, I tend to find myself doing the same ones over and over. If you want some new ideas, try any of these!
1. Hand in hand during second Sunday on King
What better to do on a Sunday afternoon then stroll down King Street looking at all the cute dogs! A time where you can explore amazing food, visit tasty food trucks, go shopping, and explore one of Americas most beautiful places.
2. Sunset beach date with pizza
Choose one of Charlestons great beaches, pack a blanket, grab a pizza and your favorite wine. This one is sure to be a romantic one if you're looking for a little more romance!
3. Dinner date at any of Charlestons amazing restaurants
If you are anything like my man and I, then you are a foodie. We always have a date night at some of Charlestons best restaurants. Recently, we took on High Cotton and I highly recommend, but you can never go wrong with a dinner date to mellow mushroom as well!
4. Quick ice cream date to Jeni's
There is nothing better than ending the evening with some rose sorbet or some brambleberry crisp. Jeni's delectable flavors are for sure to get your mouth watering. This is an ice cream must have!
5. Netflix and popcorn in your small college room
Wanting a night in? All you need is to head to your local red box, grab a movie and make some popcorn. You'll feel just at home in your twin bed.
6. A stroll to the battery
Trying to burn off the calories you ate the night before? Take a stroll down to the battery. If you are lucky, you may even see some dolphins swimming around!
7. Magnolia Plantation and gardens
A little out of downtown, you can take a short adventure to magnolia plantation and gardens! It is quite likely you'll walk around with a smile on your face.
8. Angel Oak
Going for a little more history? Go see this amazing tree or even make a wish!
9. The aquarium
Have a love for the ocean? Head on down to the aquarium where you can see one of the oceans best, a sea turtle. Rehabilitation in action.
10. Morning runs only to work off the calories you're about to consume at brunch
Whether you are a runner or a walker, you can go for a walk or run on any of the beautiful streets and I am sure you will always find something beautiful to look at and you may find yourself at Poogans Porch as well!
Whoever you are as a person, there is no doubt you will find yourself doing something you love here in Charleston, SC. One favorite thing I love to do (by yourself or with someone) is to put a blanket in rivers green or Marion Square and enjoy nature. There is nothing better than some fresh air and relaxation.
