Romantic Activities in the Golden City
San Francisco is one of the most romantic cities in the world. With the city’s natural beauty as a backdrop, it is the perfect place to enjoy with your loved one. San Francisco offers an assortment of activities to put that spark back in your relationship from a quiet romantic stroll to night on the town.
Picnic at the Palace of Fine Arts
The Marina District’s Palace of Fine Arts is the perfect backdrop for a romantic afternoon picnic. Built in the early 1900s for the Panama-Pacific Exposition, the Palace of Fine Arts evokes a feeling of being transported to a small European town. With the romantic feel of the location and picture perfect lagoon, it is no wonder the location is popular with locals for weddings and wedding photography.
Take a Sunset Cruise
Enjoy a sunset cruise on one of the many fleets in the San Francisco Bay. With several choices from group cruises to chartered catamarans or sailboats, you can cuddle and take in the sunset with your loved one. Cruises take you on a two-hour tour of the bay where you can watch the sunset with the Golden Gate Bridge or city skyline background, while enjoying cocktails and hors d’oeuvres on deck.
Dance at the Starlight Room
A romantic place to impress your loved one with your amazing dance moves is the world-famous Starlight Room in the Sir Francis Drake Hotel. Overlooking the twinkling lights of Union Square, this classic old-world nightclub brings out the Fred Astaire in everyone. Plus, you can sip on classic cocktails and canoodle in the high-backed booths between sets.
Stroll through the Conservatory of Flowers
Every girl loves flowers, so take your gal to Golden Gate Park’s Conservatory of Flowers for a leisurely stroll. The wood and glass Victorian conservatory was built in 1878 and has survived several earthquakes over the years. The Conservatory of Flowers rotates its exhibits from beautiful orchids to roses depending on the time of the year. After you stroll through the Conservatory, you can relax out front on its expansive lawn and watch the hustle and bustle of Golden Gate Park.
Take in a show at the War Memorial Opera House
Hailed as one of the most celebrated opera houses in the world, an evening at the opera is the perfect romantic gesture. With performance from famous artists like Placido Domingo and Angela Gheorghui, operas at the War Memorial are quite memorable. Before the show and during intermission, you can enjoy a cocktail from one of the house’s many bars and take in the lights of the Civic Center through the floor to ceiling windows. If you aren’t an opera fan, the War Memorial is also home to the world renowned San Francisco Ballet Company, in the off-season.
Tour wine country
For an added dose of romance take your loved one up to the Bay Area’s famous wine country. Napa and Sonoma are amazing locations for a romantic weekend excursion of wine tasting and delicious food. If you can’t get away for a whole weekend, take a limo tour on a day trip to the wine country. In addition to wine tasting, many wineries offer food pairings so you can sit back and relax, while enjoying the view above the rolling vineyards.
