If you’re lucky enough to be on the OBX during Valentine’s Day, this is the guide you need! A lot of restaurants and local businesses close in the winter, but some open specifically for Valentine’s Day! Even with some local businesses closed until March, still so much to see and do on this special day of love. Check out some of the best OBX Valentine’s date night ideas that’ll be sure to make sparks fly between you and your significant other.
Watch The Sunrise & The Sunset
There’s nothing like an Outer Banks sunrise or sunset. Watching the sunrise on the beach or sunset on the sound side can be a super easy and romantic way to spend some time with your sweetheart.
Climb Jockey’s Ridge & Have An Impromptu Picnic
Climbing Jockey’s Ridge can be a fun way to bond with your significant other! Having fun running up the dunes and playing around will be sure to bring out your inner child. At the end of all of your running around and enjoying Jockey’s Ridge, have a romantic picnic at the top of the dunes if the weather is nice. If not, head back to your rental and picnic in the living room. If you get a good weather date night, the top of Jockey’s Ridge is also the best place to see the sound and the ocean at the same time!
Have A Private Beach Bonfire
What could be better than cuddling with your love by the sea with a bonfire going? Bonfire permits are super easy to acquire.
