With Valentine’s Day around the corner, it is time to think about activities you can share with your significant other to focus on romance. Whether you have time for a week away or plan to escape for a weekend, there are countless things you can do together. Treat yourself and disconnect from the stresses of life to enjoy a getaway.

Take a trip to visit the area where you first met. Whether it’s stopping at the same coffee shop, eating at the same restaurant, or walking the neighborhood, recreating the first moments where you met each other or had your first date will spark fond memories. Share your first impressions of each other and reflect on how meeting grew into the love you share today.

Pack your tent and sleeping bags and head to a local beach campsite or nature reserve for romance under the stars. Disconnect from television, internet, and cell phones, and let time pass with hikes, naps, and enjoying the beautiful world that surrounds you. Keep close to stay warm and make s’mores around the campfire.

Choose a destination a few hours from home and take a road trip. The time spent in the car together will allow you to reconnect through conversation, sing your hearts out to the radio, and share fun snacks along the way. Look for a town with features such as great restaurants, historic sites, or a winery. Think of other fun stops you can make along the way to your final destination.

Book a quick weekend cruise and take advantage of the numerous amenities. One or two night cruises don’t have ports of call so you can relax, get pampered at the spa with a couple’s massage, eat at the buffets, and enjoy the entertainment. A cruise is a convenient way to enjoy a multitude of activities all under one roof.

Enjoy a California vacation beach rental to soak in the sound of crashing waves, beautiful white sand, and gorgeous sunsets over the water. Work on your tan during the day and take romantic walks along the water in the evening.

Book a room in a romantic hotel in your own town or in another city of your choice and play the tourist role. Spend the weekend exploring museums, dining at restaurants, shopping, and taking lots of pictures. Whether you’re local or in another city, exploring new things together is a special way to pass the time and celebrate your relationship.

Visit a theme park and ride the rollercoasters all day. Whether you choose an extreme thrill park with intense rides or a water park to splash around and take the slides, the excitement will make you feel like kids again. At night, take advantage of nearby bars or restaurants.
