Trampoline Parks
If you want to feel like a kid again, maybe you should consider taking your next date to a trampoline park. They have all sorts of different sized trampolines for people of all ages to enjoy. Different parks have unique programs and attractions, such as glow-in-the-dark courses and overnight lock-ins.
Axe Throwing
Definitely a unique date night, axe throwing will teach you both a new skill and you can have fun learning together. Some places have special deals for Valentine’s Day or other events and they might even have leagues that you can join. You can go with a whole group of friends or just the two of you, either way would be fun.
Take a Tour
Even if you’ve lived in a city your whole life, there’s still lots you don’t know about it. Consider taking a tour with your date and exploring new areas of your city. You can take a history, sports, sightseeing, art, food, beer, or even a ghost tour. Pick something you two are passionate about and then do some research to see what sort of tour or learning experience you can find online. There are so many options for you to learn more about the culture and history of your city.
Water Sports
A perfect date night for an athletic or adventurous couple, consider trying a water sport. This is definitely easier if you live near a lake or the ocean, if not, you can just wait until you two go on vacation. But activities such as water skiing, surfing, paddle boarding, jet skiing, and kayaking are great ways to have fun while also getting in some exercise and learning a new skill. See if there’s a white water rafting center near you and consider trying that! Perhaps a little more intense than the others on the list, it’s still a fun option for you and your SO.
Ziplining
If you and your partner are adventure-seekers, consider going zip lining. Some zip lines are over a mile long and will be able to satiate your desire for adventure. Zipping through the woods, high above the ground, looking at the trees or lakes will make you feel like you’re flying. Some zip line parks offer other activities such as paintball or obstacle courses, so you two can make a whole day out of your ziplining adventure.
Go Karting
If you’re looking to get a little competitive, your next date should be go karting! Enjoy flying down the course in your speedy little go cart. You two will have tons of fun trying to prove you’re the more skilled go karter in the spirit of competition. You will usually be provided with safety and equipment training to make sure everyone is safe while they’re having fun. Such an exciting activity that’s also safe, give it a go with your beau.
Animal Encounters
If you two are an animal loving couple, why not try to get up close and personal with some critters you might not typically see? Some science centers or zoos will let you schedule time with an animal so you can feed and take pictures with it. The Oregon Zoo offers encounters with elephants, sea otters, penguins, sloths, and more.
Go try one of these ideas for your upcoming date night and get out of your comfort zone a little! Doing new things together is a great way to bond and learn new things about each other.
