Outdoor dates

  1. Do you have a pickup and some blankets? Well, press on the gas and drive out to a field so you can watch the stars. Pack some pillows and maybe a few snacks and enjoy a picnic under the stars.
  2. Find a U-pick fruit farm and pick away! All you need is a basket and a fun spirit. Not to mention, you can end the date by eating all the fresh fruit you picked!
  3. Depending on where you are, grab a surfboard or kayak and enjoy the water! If you live by the ocean, try to learn to surf—even if you’re not good at it, laugh at each other’s inability to catch a wave. Or, if you live near the river, spend the afternoon cruising down water—this is a perfect couples activity because it forces you to communicate and work well with your partner!
  4. Find a local hike and pack a lunch! This is a great way to get moving while also enjoying the outdoors with your partner!
  5. Go for a run together! Even if you both can’t run two miles, walking is great too! Make t a competition and see who can go faster!
  6. Find a park and play frisbee!
  7. Try something he likes! If he enjoys fishing, give it a try and see what you can get!
