5 Date Ideas To Do On Valentine’s Day

Everybody loves an outdoor picnic date. Set up a cute picnic blanket full of her favourite foods or a delicious platter of cheese, dips, salads and cold meats. To make the picnic feel extra personal, add flower arrangements. To prepare for your picnic:
- Have a bouquet of roses ready to give to him or her.
- Get a vase for the flowers - so you can enjoy the picnic without having to hold them (plus, it makes for a beautiful photo).
- Bring a picnic blanket and a small picnic table.
- Prepare the food platters you want to bring.
2. Fine Dining Experiences
Want a classy and elegant experience? A fine-dining dinner date is just the thing. Adelaide is home to some stunning dinner experiences that you and your lil’ cutie can enjoy together.

3. Date Night At Home
Wanting to avoid the hustle and bustle of going out on Valentine’s Day? A date night at home can be just as special and romantic. You can start the excitement before your date night by sending her flowers at work or have flowers prepared and surprise them with the brightest bouquet at the end of the day.
Set the romantic mood with scented candles, and their favourite home-cooked dinner (or take-out — we won’t judge!). A beautiful bouquet like the monochrome or Princess Peach will just have her blushing when she walks through the door.
Finish the night with entertainment, a special playlist of ‘your songs’, a movie or some games.
4. Strawberry Picking In Hahndorf
An intimate activity for you and your lover to do on Valentine's Day is to spend the day in Hahndorf. There are so many stunning restaurants and fun activities to do. Strawberry Picking at Beerenberg Farm is an activity that allows you to be fun and silly while getting a delicious treat.
5. Adelaide Beaches
Adelaide has many sandy, calm beaches that are just perfect for a sunset date. Pack your swimsuit and head to Semaphore, Glenelg, Largs Bay or Port Noarlunga.
Set up a beautiful picnic blanket on the beach with fake candles and a beautiful fresh bouquet. Bring a platter of food to share for dinner or even get a cheap fish and chip dinner - just be ready for the seagulls. Once you have finished dinner, get ready to jump in the ocean and enjoy each other's company.
Different Valentine’s Gift Ideas
While flowers are a perfect gift on Valentine's Day to express how you feel without saying a word, it can be sweet to include a little something special as an extra surprise — think chocolate, a hand-written card or some of their favourite speciality tea.
Want to really pamper her? A gift set of hand balms and incense might be just the thing to fill her day with a soft scent.
