-
Miami’s famous cityscapes are best enjoyed together from a bench on the shoreside or while lounging lazily on the beachside of the coast.
-
A leisurely walk on the boardwalk is also a great low-cost date option for indecisive or picky eaters (we all know who we’re talking about).

Outdoorsy & Adventurous

Ride a paddleboat through Miami’s Pinto’s Farm:
- Paddle boarding may not be for everyone, but paddle boating is for everyone! Just strap on a lifejacket, take a seat alongside your partner, and enjoy some quality time together.

- Remember – no one has ever been sad while riding on a jet ski. It’s science.
- No jet ski? No problem! Renting a jet ski online is easy peasy.
Tidal Cove
For a splashy date spot, stop by Aventura’s best waterpark, located inside Tidal Cove:
- Whether you’re a prospective (or current) resort guest or just looking into purchasing a day pass, Tidal Cove is the best spot in town to cool off and experience a variety of thrills.
- Check out the nation’s first-ever FlowRider and try your hand at “surfing” without ever hiking to the beach and waiting patiently for the perfect wave.
- Book a resort day pass or reserve a romantic cabana.
Festivals
Consider attending a local music, arts, or food and wine festival with your partner:
- One major perk of living in South Florida is having festival season year-round.
- And don’t sleep on the local automotive events and shows! You’d be shocked by how much SWAG (Stuff We All Get) can lie inside a giant convention.
Knaus Berry Farm
Pick fresh strawberries or tomatoes at Miami’s Knaus Berry Farm:
- Slurp up some farm-fresh strawberry milkshakes and nibble on their local-favorite cinnamon buns.

- With a lineup of films ranging from cult classics to new releases, there’s a movie showing for everyone.
- Enjoy open-air 360° panoramic views of the famous Miami skyline from the rooftop.
ResortPass
And if you love Miami’s luxury hotels but hate their luxury price point, consider a couple’s daycation with ResortPass:
- Starting at as low as $20, you can get access to a luxurious hotel pool, lounge chair, and more depending on the hotel.

Espanola Way
Dance, dine, shop, or stay the night together on Miami’s famous Española Way:
- Now a pedestrian-only street, a cultural renaissance has occurred and creating a new place for people to father, create, and celebrate.
- Shops stay open late, so you won’t have to skip out on your reservations at Byblos (we recommend the beef kabobs).
- Whether you’re looking to spend some quality time together on the beach, making fine dining reservations, or dancing the night away, Española Way has exactly what you need for a perfect date night.
So, if you’re tired of being given the exact same nightclub, bar, and beach recommendations, we hope you’ve found something new to enjoy with your partner, spouse, or prospective first date.
