The Best Dates for Summer

Summer is the absolute best time to fall in like or love. There is so much for you to do with your significant other, or potential love interest. This list has the best dates for the summer for every category. Just met this person and want to get to know them? Been dating for forever and need to switch it up? Not sure if you like this person but want to get a group together? 

Amusement Park. By far the best date to go on, especially if you are just starting to get to know each other! Pay at the gate or ahead of time and you can buy your own ticket if you are just starting out (so no one feels pressure). Between the roller coasters, the people watching, the snack foods and shows, theres so much fun to be had. Not to mention the waiting lines — a great way to get to know more about each other while being casual. If you go to a park with water rides, it’s a fun way to cool off in the summer heat. All in all, this would be my number one date spot. You can venture out just you and your love interest, or get a group to go together so it doesn’t feel so personal. 

Planetarium. If you're looking for a way to throw down the mojo, a planetarium is where it’s at! Nothing is more romantic than a night viewing the stars. But sometimes in the summer it can get unbearably hot and sticky; the planetarium is a great alternative. It’s a great way to hold hands, sit in the dark, and cool off from the hot sun. A few planetariums I’ve been to host a nightly  sky show where it shows you how to spot the constellations that night. Take your day-date and turn it into a date-night after the planetarium trip!

Bowling. Yeah, yeah I know it’s a typical date idea but seriously… when was the last time you went bowling? Or better question: have you ever left a bowling trip not happy? It’s a cheap date and is a great way to have a one-on-one conversation or bring another couple along to make it a competition. 

Arcade. Talk about a blast from the past! Who doesn’t love arcades? There are so many games to be played, and you can win some fun things these days. My personal favorites are whack-a-mole and ski-ball. Whatever your favorites are, the arcade is a perfect way to show your date that you’re fun and are up for whatever! Some arcades are located on the beach or in fun locations where you can use it as an excuse to make your date go longer!

Putt-Putt. For those of us on a budget putt-putt, or miniature golf, is a great and cheap date. Neither parties need to be good at putt-putt, I mean who really is good at putt-putt? And if they are good, is that some kind of accomplishment? Putt-Putt is a great way to have one-on-one conversations to get to know someone better and see if you’re up for another date.

Nature Preserve. If you are looking for something a little more intimate, take a trip to a local state park or nature preserve. These are a great way to walk around and have a quiet, uninterrupted discussion. If you want to step it up a notch you can pack a lunch and have a picnic. Soak in the nature and get some one-on-one time.
