While there’s nothing wrong with going for dinner and a movie on Valentine’s Day, it can also be fun to try something a little different. Check out these 10 date ideas for some inspiration.

On Valentine’s Day, it’s easy to get stuck in cliches. Thankfully, it’s also easy to think outside of the box. Whether you have been together for 10 months or 10 years, whether you want to do something that suits your interests or you want to try something new, here are some suggestions for how to make Valentine’s Day a little more special.

Go to a Local Bookstore

If you are both book nerds or if you just want to read more, going to a bookstore for Valentine’s Day can be a cute and fun date. Try to choose a locally owned store for a more quaint and cozy feel while you browse the stacks.

Escape from an Escape Room

Get some adrenaline pumping from the thrill of escaping (or failing to escape!) an escape room. These puzzle rooms are not only heaps of fun, but they offer a great way for couples to get to know each other.

Visit a Museum

This Valentine’s Day, why not enrich yourselves intellectually? Head to an art museum, a history museum, or a natural history museum where you can spend some time getting to know each other better in a relaxing environment away from the noise of a bar or restaurant.

Let Loose at a Karaoke Bar

Perhaps the two of you are the type who prefers to let loose instead. In that case, why not head over to a karaoke bar? Singing karaoke is a great bonding experience. Make sure you pick out some corny love songs for each other as well.

Take a Workout Class

If you and your significant other have been talking about getting into shape, then use Valentine’s Day to kick things off with a workout class. From spin classes to yoga classes and everything in between, there’s something out there for every couple.

Take a Cooking Class

There’s almost nothing more romantic than cooking for your significant other. You can learn new skills and recipes if you take a cooking class together for Valentine’s Day. Consider a dessert-making class to suit the sweetness of the holiday.

Attend a Comedy Show

Laughter always brings people together. While you could just stay at home and watch a Netflix special, going out for a live show will make the whole experience feel even more special. Enjoy an evening of endorphins that can help you feel even closer.

Go on a Hike

Another way to get those endorphins flowing is on a beautiful hike. Temperatures might still be chilly, but just get bundled up and hit the trail. It’s a great way to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and even enjoy some meaningful conversation.

Visit a Climbing Gym

Since its debut at the Olympics, sports climbing has enjoyed a surge in popularity. This fun and physical activity is a great way for two people to get to know each other, regardless of their skill levels.

Volunteer Together

If you feel like you’ve been lucky in love, then maybe you want to pass along that goodwill to others. What better way to celebrate love with the one you love than volunteering and giving back to the community together?

This Valentine’s Day, why not think outside of the box and create a unique memory that you and your significant other can cherish for a long time to come?
