Out of the Box New York Date Ideas

It is true, when it comes to dating and dates, New York has all you could possibly need. How good you are in planning dates depends on just how creative you are in making the resources (attractions in New York included) at your disposal work for you. But even if you were the master of romance, fun and creative, you would need to get some motivation from somewhere – you will need some help from time to time. Trouble is, there aren’t so many sites that can offer you this kind of advice. Lucky for you, we are here to rescue you. But just a point to note, today and for the length of time you will be planning for that romantic date, disregard the free attractions in New York. You will need and want to go all out on this. And for that you will need to spend some dollars. Not too much, but just enough to get you what you need to win the heart of your lover or crush.

Brooklyn Botanic Garden

Heaven is closer to you than you think after all. And what is better is that you do not have to die to go there. Okay, well not the actual heaven, but a paradise that comes close to it nonetheless. The Brooklyn botanic Garden is an old NYC park and one of the most popular attractions in New York too, and it comes packing a punch. It will not disappoint you or your loved one. It is hidden away in the Prospect Park and features over 50 acres of beautiful cherry blossoms and a rose garden.  Nature has a way of creating the mood with the least effort. Make this work for you in your date.

The Water Table

Who knew that a rehabilitated water boat could have such a romantic setting? The vintage vessel floats in the East river granting you great scenery as you enjoy each other’s company and dine on the wood paneled cabin. You will be served with sumptuous lobsters and classic cocktails that meet your fancy. Nothing is left to chance in this boat.

Jane’s Carousel

The Brooklyn Bridge, with all the attractions in New York it provides you with is utterly romantic, especially as the sun is setting and rising. However, you have not yet seen what the bridge has to offer if you have not enjoyed a ride on Jane’s Carousel. Constructed nearly 100 years ago, the hand-painted attraction offers a childhood glee, fun and romance. There is an innocence to it that will get any couple closer and more connected. After having a ride, carry on with the child mood and have an ice Cream down at the Brooklyn Ice Cream factory.

The Gallow Green

Most New York sites have roof top bars whose major selling points revolve around the great views they offer. Now, I don’t dispute the fact that the views are to die for, but when you have seen too much of it, it grows kind of old. Good thing Gallow Green despite being a rooftop bar in the 21^st century took a different twist to it. They created a romantic garden perfect for parties and couples. In the warm months you can sit and enjoy each other’s company under the short trees while in the cooler months you can enjoy the same, only in a warm cabin.

LIC cliffs

If you have been looking for a date that is outside of town but could not bring yourself to ditch the city with all its awesomeness, then you surely have a few hours to spare and climb to great heights. At the LIC rock climbing facility, you can show off your independence and individuality as well as competitive spirit if you are that kind of couple. You can have an introductory class to learn how to tie the ropes and harness yourselves or you could let the pros do it for you and just rush to the top trying to outdo one another. If you love it too much and would love to make it your thing, membership is an option that you can explore. And just in case you are wondering, yes climbing rocks is romantic for active couples anyway. Trust me, it is better that NY sightseeing even in the warm seasons. New York is the King and queen of romance. If you just know where to check you will nail that date hands down. Be careful to choose the best attractions in New York City matching your dates liking and interests. Don’t take her/him to rock climb when they hate any physical activity. This along with awesome attractions in New York will definitely perfect your date.
