Fun Outdoors Dates
Outdoor dates can be tricky. You have to figure out what the weather will be before doing any of these activities.
If you or your date aren’t huge outdoors lovers, I highly recommend getting outside for your date. There is something so romantic about nature and the great outdoors.
I want to describe the first idea here. Go to your local grocery store and get some bottled soda, then take them to a park nearby that has a hill where you can watch the sunset, ENJOY! Simple things can be the best things.
- sunset and sodas
- pickleball (find the perfect of paddles and balls here)
- scavenger hunt
- picnic
- hike
- bar-b-que
- dog sit for a friend
- top golf
- walk through a garden center
- go to a driving range
- walk around a neighborhood and pick your favorite homes
- have a photoshoot
- go slacklining
- bike ride
- go horseback riding
- Visit a zoo
- Go to an amusement park or fair
Fun Date Ideas for Indoors
Some of these ideas are good for at home, but I had to include a section that was for indoor activities that are good to do outside the home.
These are fun ideas, especially when you can’t trust the weather. Do you find it hard to think of things to do other than just going to the movie theaters? I know I do.
These are fun ones that will make you let loose, feel like a kid again. Activities like these help you to get to know each other better… quicker!
- Trampoline park

- thrift shop
- take a dance lesson
- Walk around Ikea
- find the most random item in Wal-Mart
- visit a museum
Fun Dates in General (try anywhere)
Ok, these activities can be at home, outdoors, indoors, anywhere. I just didn’t know what to call the section, so bear with me!
Try to get creative and maybe even combine some of these activities!
- make a YouTube video
- visit a grandparent
- mini golf
- play truth or dare
- eat a unique meal
- go through a drive thru and say you’ll get whatever the person in front of you ordered
