Chocolates and flowers are always nice, but for those who are looking for something a little different, Sydney offers some great Valentine’s Day ideas for any enamoured couple. For a great date in Sydney – Valentine’s or any time – consider these ideas.

Open Air Cinema
Take in a flick in the great open air. Sydney has a number of open air cinema venues that run throughout the summer. The St George OpenAir cinema sits at Mrs Macquarie’s Chair with a great view of the Harbour. So picturesque – just grab a blanket, snuggle up and enjoy a night under the stars.

A Beach for Two
Sydney has a number of “secret beaches” tucked away along the harbour that make the perfect private getaway. Consider Milk Beach in Vaucluse or Lady Martins Beach near Point Piper and enjoy a day in the sun and surf with your special someone. If you’re feeling particularly cheeky – why not head out to one of the many nudist beaches – including Obelisk beach near Mosman or Lady Bay Beach near Watson’s Bay.

Picnic in the Park
Take in some sun and enjoy the park by packing a romantic picnic for two. Centennial Parklands offers some great picnic spots with beautiful scenery and adorable wildlife. Find a spot near one of the many ponds and lay out a romantic spread.

A Sultry Sydney Cabaret Show
Why not be bold and venture out into the unknown? This is the perfect time to check out our weekly cabaret dinner show where couples can enjoy a delightful meal and have a few laughs. The show takes place at Cafe 212 in the heart of Surry Hills, one of Sydney’s most eclectic suburbs.

Make it a night in
Staying in is the new going out in Sydney. With amateur cooking shows taking over our televisions sets, more and more people are venturing into trying some gourmet cooking at home. Visit a local farmers’ market and get some fresh ingredients to prepare your partner a great restaurant quality meal – and reap the rewards.

oooh la la – what are some of your saucy plans for an unforgettable Valentine’s Day?
