We all know that most people will take their Valentine out to dinner and a movie on Saturday. It’s most likely going to be over packed and may not go as you have planned. So, why not try mixing it up a little bit with these different date ideas for your Valentine’s Day.
 
1. Go to a hockey game
Instead of going to overcrowded restaurants on Valentine’s Day, why don’t you and your Valentine check out the Lightning vs. Sharks game on Sunday. This will definitely be a more fun and laid-back type of atmosphere!
 
2. Disney World

Who wouldn’t want to spend a day in Disney with their Valentine!?

3. Weekend trip to Key West

With Key West being only a few hours south of Tampa, it’s a fun, relaxing, and happy atmosphere that will be a weekend to remember.
 
4. Whetstone Chocolate Factory- St. Augustine, FL
Instead of just buying chocolate for the occasion, why don’t you actually tour a chocolate factory?!
 
5. Mini golf

Laid back, and easy!

6. Dinner on the beach

Dinner, the beach, and a sunset? What’s more romantic?!

7. Weekend Ski Trip

If you and your Valentine are feeling spontaneous and find cheap airfare, etc. then maybe you could take a step away from the Sunshine State for a short weekend and do a ski trip!
