11 Florida Date Night Ideas
#1. Northwest Florida
The St. Vincent National Wildlife Refuge offers nine miles of pristine beaches just begging for you to go seashell collecting on a romantic date.
There are miles of hiking trails through a variety of ecosystems. The island is home to more than 240 species of birds.
The only way to reach this refuge is by ferry, regularly leaving from Indian Pass, Florida.
#2. North Central Florida
Learn about the evolution of farming from the 1850 to-1950s the by visiting the Dudley Farm Historic State Park.
While you and your date will encounter farm animals and crops being grown using traditional methods by people dressed in historical costumes, the best time to go is during late November and early December when they make their sugar cane syrup.
#3. Northeast Florida
Taking a ghost tour of the St. Augustine Lighthouse is a fun date night activity. While this city is filled with many historical buildings, the Keeper’s House at the lighthouse is the oldest, having been constructed in 1874.
Many people report seeing the lighthouse’s first keeper smoking his cigar, and others report seeing his replacement at the top of the tower. In contrast, still, others report seeing two young girls tragically on the property.
#4. Jacksonville
Catching a show at the Thatcher-Horne Center is a fun activity for date night. This theatre on St. Johns River State College is a great place to see Broadway productions.
While the theatre seats 1,700 people, you and your significant other will feel like you are the only one here as the experience is intimate.
#5. Central West Florida
Going kayaking at Rainbow Springs State Park is a beautiful way to spend date night. If you do not have a kayak, then rent one from the concessionaire located there.
Grab hold and swing from one of the many ropes tied to the old-growth trees lining this waterway. Stroll along the walking path hand-in-hand.
#6. Central Florida
More than 750 horse farms are located in Central Florida. While it can be hard to get into many of them, going on a barn tour is a great way to visit three of them.
Depending on the season, you can see baby foals and learn about great stallions, including Kentucky Derby winners who have been raised in this part of Florida.
#7. Central East Florida
Take in a free concert at the Riverwalk Bandshell in Stuart, Florida. The riverwalk is also a great place to dine on fresh caught fish and oysters.
Finally, spend some time shopping in the quaint shops located along the riverwalk.
