Best Romantic Date Ideas in Los Angeles
It’s been a whirlwind of a summer. Yes, COVID is still a presence in our lives, but the fall season is looking promising (or at least not too bleak). We’re here to remind you that it’s time for you to lock and cuff up your partner for the months to come. Hurry up! Make sure you get to meet the person you can stand enough through the new year. Whether you’ve had a hot vax summer or kept your love life very low-key, you do have to actually go on dates. With another person. So, if you’ve swiped right but are stuck in finding something to do other than coffee for your date, here are 7 cute date ideas in Los Angeles that you’ll most definitely enjoy:
Anchored Ocean View Experiences
We are thrilled to give this wonderful experience a try ourselves when in California. As extreme water and boat lovers, oh! and wine, the host of this experience offers a great personality coupled with the simplicity of a memorable experience. Engage yourself in a private, extravagant, memorable, fun sea view experience in Long Beach, California. Book Sunkissed Mermaid the Boat as your quiet getaway slightly off the beaten path that offers guests a dramatic scene of tranquil serenity and relaxation coupled with the bustling lifestyle of a lively marina community.
At Echo Park Lake, you can live your best life:
Echo Park reopened a few months ago, and it’s now the ideal location for reenacting one of those rom-com movie montages. Feed the native ducks, go for a sunset stroll, or take a trip on the famed Swan pedal boats (which, in case you didn’t know, glows at night!). You’ll need to book in advance, so commit to the idea ahead of time and have fun.
See a film beneath the stars:
It’s that time of year again when you pay to be scared to death by an outdated horror film. In October, the Hollywood Forever Cemetery will host Saturday night screenings of films like Nightmare on Elm Street and The Shining. Through November, E.P. & L.P. ‘s MelroseRooftopTheatre will continue to show classic films every night, with a concentration on spooky screenings in October with films like Scream, Seven, and Candyman.
Plus, at Rooftop Cinema Club, you can see new films beneath the stars while enjoying the spectacular city views from LEVEL and the Montalbán rooftop. You won’t even need to carry a blanket or camping chair since RFC will offer you a comfortable lawn chair and blankets upon request for the ideal pleasant evening. For a full L.A. late date-night experience, arrive early to enjoy supper and beverages. Ironic, isn’t it, ha!
The view from the Griffith observatory is breathtaking:
The Griffith Observatory is a lovely spot for dates, whether you trek up to it during the day or drive there at night to observe the stars. Look out over the city, which often leads to exciting talks. Watch the observatory display, or put your astronomical knowledge to the test. Whatever you do here, it’ll be a wonderful day that may be as romantic or as laid-back as you desire.
Supernova Comedy Will Make You Laugh And Let Go:
Laughing on a date is usually a positive indication, so stack the deck in your favor and head to Hollywood’s Supernova Comedy. This show, which debuted late last year and has a star-studded lineup of comedians like Sarah Silverman, Pete Holmes, Iliza Schlesinger, and Howie Mandel, to name a few, continues to wow audiences. The stone walls surrounding the theater-in-the-round type structure, as well as the surreal graphics exhibited on the flat-screen T.V.s mounted on said walls, turn this outdoor venue into a really spectacular comedy venue. I mean, the saying is, it’s easier to laugh in love than fall, right? I’m kidding; nobody said that. But it makes sense, right?
Moonlight Rollerway Is The Place To Be If You Want To Go Back In Time And Go Rollerskating:
If you’re still holding hands after a few dates, head to Moonlight Rollerway for a “couple’s skate.” The atmosphere and architecture have remained unchanged since the owner purchased the location in 1985. As we all know, the 1980s were a terrific age for rom-com. Monday nights are reserved for adults, and Rainbow Skate Event, a gay skate night for all ages featuring disco music, is back this month.
Take a walk at sunset:
Los Angeles has fantastic sunset spots and the Jonas Brothers can attest to this. A sunset trek will take you and your companion on a romantic outdoor excursion, whether you flee the city or ascend the hills for views of famous locations. For a hike within city borders, try the Mt. Hollywood Trail or the Brush Canyon Trail. Chaparral’s slopes, along with the unrivaled views of the Hollywood sign, make for a perfect first date in Los Angeles. Drive over to Malibu Creek State Park for a choice of pathways to explore if you want a more leisurely stroll.
Planning an amazing couples’ only time takes hard work and dedication. Just kidding, it shouldn’t be that hard. The goal is to enjoy lovey-dovey time, not prepare for an interview. However, this doesn’t mean it’s a one-size-fits-all.
So, always make sure you’re in tune with what you both enjoy doing. And if you need ideas, well that’s what we’re for. Double-win if you stay in L.A. We have put together a list that could help make couple date nights in L.A fun. So feel free to always reference us.
Cheers!
