Date ideas
You drive along the coast with your partner. The windows are down. You feel the ocean air. You stop at beaches and lookouts along the way. You bring supplies that fit in one bag. This keeps the car tidy and the day simple. You talk about whatever comes to mind. You do not need a tight schedule. Pick places that look interesting and stay as long as you want.
Action
Pull over at a wide beach. Take out sandwiches, cold drinks and a blanket. Spread everything out and sit together. The waves give you something to look at while you eat. Talk about your day or what you see in the water.
Pro-Tip
Pack the food in separate containers so it stays fresh and easy to serve on the blanket.
Spicy Twist
Feed each other bites and see if it leads to more kisses.
Action
Find a high viewpoint. Bring your camera and water bottles. Take photos of each other against the ocean backdrop. The light at this time makes every shot look good. Sit on the rocks for a few minutes.
Pro-Tip
Take several shots so you have options later when you look back at the day.
Spicy Twist
Pose for a few close shots that only you two will see.
