10 Weird Date Ideas for Adventurous Couples

A 2014 research shows that partners who continue dating, even after they’ve been together for a while, have a much happier relationship than those who simply stay in each night.

We all need fun and excitement in our lives, more so in our love life. It might be anything from an outdoor picnic to horseback riding, and rock climbing to race car driving. The goal is to impress your date and an exciting date will definitely help you do just that.

So why not attempt something a little more exciting and challenging? There are countless things you can do on your date other than a movie or dinner for two.

Well, here are 10 weird date ideas for those looking for something a little different. However, be warned that some of these ideas aren’t everyone’s cup of tea.

Love in the Amazing Outdoors

Make a foil dinner and take s’mores and drinks to your favorite camping or hiking place.

Spend the evening exploring and skipping rocks, before you create a fire to cook your meals. Spend some time making s’mores by the fire and then find a nice place to gaze at the stars.

This date idea is not only very relaxing but also simple and romantic. And there are variations based on your local geography, etc. You can spend the time in the mountains, at the beach, watching a thunderstorm from a distance, and so on.

Rock Climbing

So you’ve been to the Appalachian Mountains, but you have never actually tried this adventurous date idea? Why not try it?

Rocking climbing is an amazing date idea for daring couples, but remember that doing it in the outdoors on your own isn’t like climbing a rock at the wall in your gym.

If you’re trying this activity for the first time, join a class or group that’s got an experienced instructor.

Take a Helicopter Ride Together

You should book a helicopter ride if you have never done it before. Most local airfields provide flying lessons or short helicopter experiences.

If your budget allows, you can fly to a romantic destination for the weekend. You’ll be surprised to find that a helicopter ride isn’t as costly as you’d imagine, but this is certainly one of those unusual date ideas you and your significant other will never forget.

Race Car Driving

Are you a massive NASCAR fan? What are your favorite drivers? The legend Dale Earnhardt? Or Jeff Gordon?

Well, get inside the car yourself instead of just watching them drive on the racetrack.

Depending on your skills and budget, you can either get behind the wheel and have a few laps on the track on your own, or ride in the real NASCAR race car with the guidance of an experienced driver, of course.

Such an adventurous date would be a perfect anniversary or birthday gift.

Join a Contest

Check to find out if your city/town has any contests going on locally and pick one. This might be a hunt for the next great band, a search for medallions, or even a cuisine challenge.

Agree to take part in the contest and make sure to see it through to the end, regardless of your odds of winning. This can be amazing date idea because it can turn into several dates and perhaps even unlock one or two hidden talents.

Horseback Riding

Whether you’re an experienced or novice rider, horseback riding is one of the best ways to appreciate the countryside. Some ranches will show you how to saddle, ride, and groom, or how to turn yourself into a cowboy or cowgirl during a camping trip.

Many locations also provide organized treks, so get to your local riding stable and arrange some lessons together.

Massage Your Date

This is one of the most romantic date ideas. Treat your sweetheart to a pampering, indulgent massage at home. Pick up some nice massage oil, light candles, and rub up your darling in the most sensual way.

But if you’re not that good at massage, you can always leave it to the experts, like the ones at Winks London.

Shooting Range

Recently acquired a gun and looking for lessons? Or maybe you’re simply looking for something exciting and new to try?

Well, having a date at your local shooting range is sure to give you one hell of an experience. One you’ve never had previously.

At some places, you will be given a rifle, shotgun, or handgun during lessons, but other places expect you to have your own gun as well as safety equipment.

Regardless of your skill level, always remember that using a gun is serious business and you shouldn’t play around with one.

Video Game Date

Yes, this sounds like a mundane date idea but you haven’t got a clue where this one might leave you.

From the crazy competition to the adrenaline rush, this date will take lots of hours since a video game date can’t be over after just a few games. Of course, there’s always a rematch to look forward to.

We just hope you don’t end up splitting up after this.

Gaze at the Sunrise Together

We all have got a secret spot or two where sun looks so much beautiful when it rises. How about taking your partner to your secret location at 5 a.m. and laying back to the sight of the sun rising and filling the sky up?

You don’t know how easy it gets to pour your heart out at this moment when it’s not exactly night and not day either. Tell your partner everything and perhaps they’ll also tell you everything.
