Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. We thought it would be fun to share some ideas for romantic activities that you and your sweetheart can enjoy together here in Jacksonville and the greater First Coast area.
Romantic Outdoor Activities
Jacksonville is blessed with a beautiful mild winter climate. February is a great time to enjoy the great outdoors together.
Walk on the beach:
With miles of coast line you can’t go wrong with this tried and true way of connecting with one another while enjoying the ocean breeze hand in hand. You can stroll the Jacksonville Beach Pier and then have a drink at a nearby resort such as Margaritaville or the rooftop of the Casa Marina.
Go for a nature walk:
A few great trails to try that are close by:
- Cradle Creek Preserve at 900 S 15th St Jacksonville Beach
- The Guana Trails in Ponte Vedra Beach
- Walking around Fort George Island
Enjoy a great meal:
We have many wonderful restaurants in our city. The Jacksonville Mom blog has a great list of ideas to check out.
Stay home
Who says you have to go out to enjoy a romantic time in Jacksonville?
Create romantic memories on Valentine’s Day or anytime with your loved one in the comfort of your own home with these fun ideas:
- Light a fireplace if it is cool enough outside
- Put on some nice music and dance in your living room
- Try out a new recipe and cook together in the kitchen
- Have a game night (this one you can include the kids and all make memories together- a family who plays together stays together).
- Stream and watch a movie together (there are so many great Oscar-nominated movies to watch this Oscar season).
- Watch old family videos or your wedding ceremony. If you have been together for a long time, there is nothing better to reignite your love and passion than to relive the moments of when you were newly in love. Some experts believe watching your old wedding video is great for your marriage. If these videos are on old VHS, Beta, film, mini DVDs, and other older media, the team here at Memory Lane Jacksonville can help you digitize your wedding and other family videos so that you and your family may enjoy them for many more years to come.
Here at Memory Lane Jacksonville, we wish you a very happy Valentine’s Day. We hope that with this post we have inspired you to create new, happy, and romantic memories with your significant other.
As for the older memories that you have already lived and captured with older technology, we can help you with that ;-).
