Eight Romantic Ideas for a Memorable San Francisco Day

This month, why not make everyday Valentine's Day? San Francisco has plenty of activities all year long. For inspiration, here are a few excellent ideas to rekindle the romance: 

Natural scenic beauty is always a terrific setting for romance, as you and your special someone will discover while ambling along picturesque Lover’s Lane Trail at the Presidio.

Take advantage of the romantic appeal of sharing a blanket and a picnic while watching the sunset at Baker Beach, or on a bright sunny day at Golden Gate Park. Before you go, pack a basket with your favorite gourmet treats at the Ferry Building Marketplace. Don’t forget the wine!

Whether pre-or-post-picnic, a pedal boat or rowboat ride around Stow Lake presents an idyllic setting for romance. Either is available for rent at the boathouse.

Explore the historic Embarcadero Waterfront near sunset, and then dine on the finest Spanish cuisine at Coqueta on Pier 5. For the icing on your Valentine’s Day cupcake, head over to the Bay Bridge to see one of the city’s most impressive light sculpture installations, the Bay Light. Share a quiet moment with your sweetie as you gaze at this glorious work of art that illuminates the night.
