Love in the Air: The Best Date Ideas in San Francisco
When searching for a romantic weekend getaway, many people seek out a relaxing beach locale or a secluded mountain escape. Luckily, San Francisco has the best of both worlds with beaches, mountains, and a bustling city to boot! This city is the perfect destination for couples with a penchant for culture, history, and fun. This guide to some of the best date ideas in San Francisco will help you make the most of your next romantic outing to the city by the bay.

See a show

If you’re in the mood for a classic date night outing, complete with dinner and a movie, stop by the Roxie Theater for a viewing experience unlike any other. The Roxie Theater is one of the oldest operating movie theaters in the world. Though it’s changed names several times since opening in the early 1900s, its quality and character have never wavered. The Roxie takes pride in giving a home to movies that most other theaters would not show. The theater regularly screens independent films and innovative documentaries, as well as some more well-known fan favorites. The Roxie also regularly hosts talks with filmmakers, entertainers, and educators.

See the sights

Narrowing down the best date ideas in San Francisco is tricky, especially when the city bustles with history and culture. The best way to see all the sights San Francisco has to offer is to embark on a guided tour of the city. Many companies throughout the city will provide you with a tour of the city in various transportation methods, which includes bus, bike, and walking tours. While on your tour, make sure to stop by Fisherman’s Wharf, Union Square, and the Palace of Fine Arts for some truly spectacular photo ops. If you prefer to see the sights from a distance, take a hike on one of the city’s many trails, such as Land’s End Lookout. End your day of sightseeing at Golden Gate Park, a sprawling urban park with the best views of San Francisco’s most iconic attractions, such as the Golden Gate Bridge.

See the sea

For a more relaxing date night activity that allows you to bask in the beauty of the city from a distance, set sail on a romantic cruise around the San Francisco Bay. While sailing in the San Francisco Bay area you’ll see stunning views of the city’s most iconic landmarks, including Alcatraz Island, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Oracle Park. You can even hold a future wedding ceremony on the ship. Finish the night with a glass of champagne as you and your loved one watch the sun set over the horizon from the deck of your private cruise.
