FUN OUTDOOR SPRING DATE IDEAS
1. Picnic in a local park
Okay this is the classic spring date idea BUT for good reason right?! Grab a cute lil blanket, pack a picnic basket with all the best fruit, sandos, and maybe a bottle of rosé (if you’re feelin spicy ;)). Bring a deck of cards or a fun board game if that’s your vibe. Bonus points if you plan it for sunset or golden hour!!
2. Bike ride through a state or national park
If you’re feeling active, hop on a bike together at a park! Biking + fresh air + stunning scenery = such a great way to be out and about, enjoying the weather together. Choose a scenic route, bring a water bottle, and stop somewhere along the way for a snack break.
3. Go cherry blossom viewing
I absolutely adore cherry blossom season, so this is an absolutely ✨elite✨ spring date in my book LOL. Find a spot known for its blooms, pack a blanket, and just soak in the beauty!
4. Take a long walk together on a scenic trail
Long walks = the best deep convos. Also a GREAT way to habit stack if you have a dog. Maybe even stop for coffee or a little picnic along the way!
5. Find a hike
If you’re both a little adventurous, find a hike with a rewarding view at the top! Nothing bonds you like sweating together, LOL. Bring snacks, take lots of pictures, and celebrate with a cute post-hike meal.

A literal fairytale date. Walk through dreamy gardens, admire all the blooms, and take way too many cute pictures. Perfect place for a slow, romantic afternoon.
7. Take a road trip to a lil town nearby
Hop in the car, play your fave playlists, and drive to a charming little town for the day. Explore cute shops, try a new restaurant, and just enjoy each other!
8. Visit an amusement park or fair
I always thought that amusement parks were the cutest date and SO much fun!! Spend the day riding rollercoasters, eating funnel cake, and maybe winning a giant stuffed animal for your favorite person.
9. Go mini golf (outside)
Highly recommend mini golfing as a double-date activity. Especially if you’re in for something competitive. Bonus if you find a fun-themed course! Make it extra spicy with a lil friendly wager—losers buy drinks?
10. Do a wine-tasting tour at a local winery
Dress cute, pretend to know what “notes of oak and blackberry” mean, and enjoy getting tipsy together in a gorgeous vineyard setting. Definitely a great way to spend a romantic evening.
11. Go beer garden hopping
Find the best outdoor beer spots in your city and make a lil “hop” out of it! (LOL. I tried)
12. Explore a farmer’s market
This is one of my favorite spring date ideas! Farmer’s markets really come alive in the spring—I love seeing all the May flowers, fresh strawberries, and seasonal treats… eek! I love.
13. Find a drive-in movie night
Upgrade from a movie theater and find a drive-in movie! The best part about this is you bring whatever delicious food you want and don’t have to pay 2349823% extra for movie theater snacks.

Nothing says spring like baby goats and fluffy chicks! Visit a farm, feed the animals, and prepare for all the cuteness 🙂
15. Pick strawberries at a local farm
Spring is peak strawberry picking time!! Fill a basket with fresh berries, take cute pics, and maybe bake a lil something together afterward.

Hot air balloon rides are INSANE! This was actually how my fiancé wanted to propose to me… more on that here though. It was magical regardless!! Highly recommend for nature lovers (who aren’t scared of heights).

WOOHOO spring is the start of outdoor concerts/festival season!! Live music + fresh spring air = perfection.

Pickleball, frisbee golf, tennis—spring is the perfect time to try something new! Doesn’t matter if you’re bad at it—just go and have a good time!

Food truck festivals are the BEST if you love trying a bunch of different foods!! Spend the day sampling all the best eats. The best foodie date out there.

Okay so forest bathing isn’t actually taking a bath in the forest—it’s simply just fully immersing yourself in nature and being completely surrounded by the trees! This is one of the BEST spring date ideas if you love the outdoors and brings so much calm!
26. Take a walk in the rain
April showers bring May flowers! Romanticize the last of the rain while you can. No umbrellas, no rush—just walking, laughing, and embracing the moment. Def rom-com vibes.

Sounds boring, but TRUST—you can make it fun! Blast music, divide up tasks, and maybe even reward yourselves with your fav takeout and Netflix after.

Book a cozy spot nearby, unplug from the world, and just relax together.

Who said game nights were just for the winter months?? Grab board games, mix up some cocktails, and get competitive.
