How will you be showing that special someone you care about them this Valentine’s Day? Here in Florida there are so many unique ways to celebrate your love that go above and beyond just dinner and drinks. If you’re looking to give your sweetheart a day to remember, these are some ideas for unique things to do in Florida for Valentine’s Day.

Hot Air Balloon Ride Over Central Florida

Soar high over Central Florida as the sun rises on a spectacular hot air balloon ride with your love. Take in some of the area’s top attractions like Walt Disney World, Epcot Center and Universal Studios Orlando from a bird’s eye view. Many hot air balloon tours include champagne brunches after the flight and certificates to commemorate the experience.

Drive-in Movie at Silver Moon in Lakeland

There aren’t many places left where you can catch a drive-in movie from the comfort of your own car. The Silver Moon Drive In Theatre in Lakeland has been around for 70 years and is still going strong for those seeking a romantic old-school drive-in movie night under the stars. They play double features on two screens every night of the week, with a mix of new and classic films.

Kayak the Oleta River

Connect with nature and your significant other on a kayaking trip down the beautiful Oleta River in the Oleta River State Park in Miami. You can rent canoes and kayaks from the Oleta River Outdoor Center or bring your own and set off down the calm waterways lined with mangroves. Along the way you can keep an eye out for herons, egrets and manatees. 

Dine With Sharks at SeaWorld Orlando

Dine on divine dishes while sharks swim past your table at Sharks Underwater Grill® and Bar at SeaWorld in Orlando. This unique restaurant is set in an aquarium with over 70 sharks teeming the waters. The special Valentine’s Day package includes a four-course meal, complimentary photograph and a rose for each couple. You can also catch a thrilling sea lion and otter show.

Sunset Horseback Ride Along the Beach

Nothing says romance like riding off into the sunset on horseback. There are several horse riding outfits in Bradenton that offer sunset tours along the Palma Sola Bay. The horses are trained to traverse the sand and even love to go swimming, so you can glide through the water on your trusty steed. Tours get booked up fast, so it pays to book well in advance.

Moonrise Tour at Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse

The Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse is one of the most iconic sites on Florida’s Atlantic Coast, and a very romantic spot to spend Valentine’s Day. The lighthouse and museum offers daily sunset and moonrise tours where you can climb to the top of the lighthouse and watch the sky change over the Atlantic Ocean. The tours also include historic details about this important landmark.
