5 Summer Date Ideas

Summer is all about getting outside and soaking up the sunshine and what better way to do that than spend it with that special someone? The long days and warm weather open the door to endless opportunities for fun and romantic dates. Whether you’re feeling adventurous, these five summer date ideas are sure to bring you closer.

Go On Hike

There’s nothing like connection with nature – each other – on a scenic. New Zealand has some of the most beautiful scenic walks in the world. Take advantage of our backyard and conquer a trail together. Pick a trail that matches your fitness levels, and pack some water and a small snack. Studies have shown that spending time in nature reduces stress, boosts mood, and increases feelings of happiness, so why not share those feel-good memories with your person?

Water Sports Adventure

If you’re feeling extra adventurous, get your adrenaline pumping with some water sports. This can be anything from kayaking, paddleboarding to jet skiing or even going for swim. Spending the day on the water is refreshing, exciting, and guarantees plenty of laughs – especially if you’re in the mood to try something new.

Visit a Farmer's Market             

Another wonderful about living in New Zealand is the abundance of farmers markets scattered in the country. Make your date extra special by taking a drive to a nearby town and exploring local offerings. Each market has its unique charm and specialities, so this could easily become a date tradition. Not only is this a relaxing way to spend time together, but it’s also a great way to pick up ingredients for a shared cooking project later (more on that below). You can even grab a bouquet or a jar of locally made jam to take home as a keepsake for your date.

Cook a Summer Dinner Together

Working together as synergistically as a team towards one main goal, making a delicious meal. Using the fresh ingredients you’ve picked up (maybe from the farmers market you visited earlier) and working side by side in the kitchen. Doing this can encourage communication, laughter, and a sense of rhythm as you navigate through your unique skills and ideas. From chopping veggies to stirring sauces, every little task becomes an opportunity to connect. There’s also a sense of accomplishment that comes from creating something together. End the night with a sweet treat that takes date night to the next level. The Chocolust Share Box is the perfect treat to enhance those intimate moments, and it’s infused with libido-boosting herbs. It’s the perfect way to end the night.

Sunset Beach Walk

With the days being longer and the sun setting later, it’s the perfect time of the year to end your day with a romantic sunset beach walk. The golden hues of the setting sun, the sound of waves crashing, and the soft sand under your feet can create a relaxing and romantic ambience. You can even bring a blanket and set up a picnic to watch the sun dip below the horizon.

Try these simple summer date ideas with your partner and make the most of the warm weather. Whether you’re chasing thrills on the water or simply enjoying the serenity of a sunset walk, each experience will bring you and your partner closer together – and leave you with memories to treasure.
