Top 10 Summer date ideas
As summer has started I thought I should help my readers to
enjoy their summer with their partners. Summer is the most happening season to go
out with your loved one. In summer you can spend time together and enjoy
outdoor activities which your partner likes. But going on date is a critical part
for some people who are shy and finding trouble for what to talk. In summer
there is a number of activities which you can do together hence find out your
favorite activity and set a date. As I can’t find you a date but I can find you
where to go on date. :-) :-)
Summer itself tends to outdoor activities. And as far as I
know, after snowy winter every one wants to enjoy bright sunshine and get relax
at a peaceful place. When I planned to write about this post I started
remembering my college days and fall in love again. Going on date is so
exciting as well as make you feel nervous. But it’s a great experience and
amazing memories too.
State Fair
State fair is one of my favorite places to go on date. The great
thing about state fair is they offer food, fun, Games, thrilling rides, live music, and shopping. So you can explore all in one package. And they have everything
so you can find what are your interest and partners likes and dislikes. Which
will help you to know each other better? Mostly in June and August, they
organize state fairs so start googling state fair near you. To find how much it
will cost you can check their website because they charge according to the activities you are planning to do. I love rides so state fair is one of the compulsory dates for me. :-) :-)

Swim at the beach
Swimming is a great workout and a fun activity. If you like to
spend time alone and want to relax than going to the beach is a great option. You can
take some food and drinks. Take your swim gear and had to the nearest beach. You
can swim at intervals and have small talks which help get to know each other better.
I personally feel the beach is a great place to do some serious talks. Most of the beach parks are free of cost. So this the option will work best at any time in summer.
Picnicking
Whenever
anyone says Picnic food comes into my mind. It
depends on you what type of picnic you want to organize. It can be a Picnic party
or maybe handmade snacks for your partner. I personally prefer handmade snacks
with a great view. So I usually find out a state park or nearest park with great
lake view. Nice water view feels more romantic. And prepare snack which won’t
get messy and do take all supplies which you need like plates, spoons, paper
napkins, etc.
Boating (Kayaking / Speed boat)
Boating is a fun activity. You can do boating with Canoeing,
Kayaking, Speed boat or Paddleboat. If you like more adventurous than you can
go for white water rafting. Some people don’t like kayaking and canoeing
because they think its stress on arms. Don’t worry, then you can take a boat tour
and still explore water views. Speed boat is always a great option as you don’t
have to do much effort to drive, so fun and adventurous. An important tip: a speed boat will be costly to rent compare to kayak and canoe. So do keep in
mind your budget.
Camping
Camping is fun and exciting. There are different options for camping, either you can rent RV or some places provide tents and cabins on rent. Renting RV can be costly. Another option is to search for a place where you can carry your own tent and stay. You can enjoy a campfire, Roast corn, and Roast marshmallows. While going on camping make sure you carry all stuff like camping bed, Woods and camp fire material, Mosquito spray if in case you need, first aid box, Torch, etc. It’s not mandatory to carry all these things but handy to keep with along.
Wine tasting / Beer tasting
Typical dining and movie dates are getting boring. Going for
wine and beer tasting can be more fun. Summer is a great season for the wine and beer
tasting. It’s totally depends on you and your partners like that which drink
you like most. There is number of local and famous places that provide wine
tasting. You can find discount coupon or deal on Groupon or on their own
website. If you don’t want to go to crowded places than you can find one
countryside. I personally feel Wine is classy alternative of flowers. After
few days flowers will end up in trash can but the taste of wine will stay in
your memories.
Berry Picking
Everyone loves fresh fruits right? And berries are great for
smoothies, desserts, and cocktails. I feel berries are the fruit of love. There is
no better way to get fresh berries except farm and that to you are picking
from your own hand. Isn’t it fun? Berries are summer fruit so you will find a number of farms around you provide berry picking. So drive to the farm, Grab your
basket and start picking fresh berries with your loved once. You can figure out
what to do with berries and may be baking a pie together.

Music Concert
For music lovers summer is best season to enjoy the concert.
There are number of places where music festivals are organized. You can choose
according to what type of music you like. Some people like rock and hip-hop
than other might like classical kind of music. Choice is all yours. Enjoying
your favorite music with loved once is a romantic moments. Do check out for
entry passes prior. Some concerts are free and some are not.

Baseball Game
Baseball is spectator sport for all ages of men and women.
It is easy to understand and not required constant attention like NFL or NBA.
You can find at least 1 minor league baseball games where teams play for their
love of game not for million dollars. Hot dogs +beer +minor league baseball =
perfect evening with your loved once. $2 hot dogs and $1 beer is more than
enough to keep you full. I went to Miller Park for baseball game and it was so
much fun. Even though I didn’t know much about baseball game rules, we had
great time together and enjoyed a lot.

Food Festival / Summer fest
Are you a food lover?
If yes, then no other date is perfect than food festival. You can try all different flavors from
different cuisines. Most of them have
tailor made dishes which you won’t get in restaurants. Spend your afternoon
hopping from one booth to another and try what you like. Some vendors provide
sampling as well. It would be fun tasting new flavors and share your thoughts
with partner. Sometimes they have booth
for snow cone and ice cream too.

Going to a baseball game would be so much fun! I love summer picnics too...
ReplyDeleteAw, these are all really great date ideas. I'd do any one of them. Reminds me that the husband and I haven't gone on a date in MONTHS! We do have an 8 week old and a 3 year old at home which probably explains why. Our date night now looks like sushi dinner...to-go! :) Thanks for sharing. -Misty
ReplyDeleteSo fun! I think we have a couple of these planned for this Summer! I'll have to add more of the ideas to our list :)
ReplyDeleteWhat fun ideas! Local festivals, wine tastings, & concerts are some of our faves. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry it took me so long to read this! Crazy last few days! :_(
ReplyDeleteCamping is possibly my most FAVORITE Summer thing to do, although that Food Festival looks like a TON of fun! I wish we had more around here!
I don't have a boyfriend, but I absolutely love all of these ideas!

ReplyDeleteWe just did the summer fair and the beer tasting date nights! Great list, definitely some more adventurous ones I could still try out with my hubby!
ReplyDeleteThese are all great ideas! I've done some of these with friends and family. I love camping, kayaking and hiking.
ReplyDeleteI love all your date ideas. I would start with the State Fair
ReplyDeleteWe just had our state fair and it was SO much fun to go to! We took our son and a friend though, so it definitely wasn't a date night unfortunately :/
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas!
ReplyDeleteI'm also in Wisconsin! We didn't make it to Summerfest this year, but I hope to bring the kids next year. You've got some of the best activities listed!
ReplyDeleteI would need to find a date first to enjoy these delightful ideas!
ReplyDeleteThe State Fair, Music Festival, and Food Festival are my kind of dates. Anyway, you have very nice date ideas, all of them are romantic!
ReplyDeleteThese all sound really fun. I like the idea of checking Groupon, a wine tasting would be awesome.
ReplyDeleteThese are great ideas and I love that you don't have to spend much on these dates. We will be trying out some of your suggestions.
ReplyDeleteThe beach is one of my favorite places to retreat to during the summer. Gotta enjoy it while it lasts :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was the music and food festival. I have done most of the ideas here except baseball games because we don't have those and the boating thing because I don't like the water. Drowning will do that to you.
ReplyDeleteLove the ideas. Thank you!
These are some great ideas!
