1) Ignite the romance with a cozy brunch date at Local House

400 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139

Ah yes, a breezy morning by the beach, immaculate sights, and the warm company of your partner — I think that calls for a cozy breakfast spread at Local House, don't you agree?

Lovers say hello to Local House, an ocean-themed, beachside eatery located in SoFi's Local House Hotel!

Offering a seafood-centric menu (and cocktails in the afternoon!), Local House is the PERFECT brunch spot for a personalized and casually sophisticated breakfast date in SoFi!

We're talking freshly caught seafood starters, classic American breakfast specials, various egg dishes, and surf n' turf mains served in a chic, Boho-inspired dining area or outdoors on their dreamy patio, where you can feel the cool ocean breeze on your skin and the funky vibe of SoBe!

Can anyone spell R-O-M-A-N-T-I-C?

2) Drink in the awe-inspiring scene at the Miami Beach Boardwalk 

46th Street & Collins Avenue to 23rd Street, Miami Beach, FL 33140

Are you thinking of lazying up on the beach after that MASSIVE meal?

Hold that thought!

What you need is a long (and awe-inspiring) stroll on the Miami Beach Boardwalk!

Running the length of Miami Beach, the Beachwalk, approximately nine miles, is an accessible oceanfront pedestrian promenade perfect for joggers, cyclists, or anyone who longs for a scenic seaside stroll.

Take a leisurely stroll with your date and drink in the picturesque beach view and Miami Beach's lush plant life.

And when you get tired of walking, feel free to settle down on the lawn to people-watch until sunset while you surround yourself with Mother Nature's beauty and share intimate conversations with your date!

3) Shine the spotlight on SoFi's lush nature at South Pointe Park

1 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139

If you think SoFi is just good for its immaculate (and more serene) beach scene, you probably haven't been to South Pointe Park yet!

Say hello to South Pointe Park, SoFi's (and South Beach's) pride and joy, a beautifully landscaped park with panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, Government Cut, and Downtown Skyline!

At South Pointe Park, you'll find a PLETHORA of activities and amenities to share with your date — walking trails, serene picnic spots, barbecue areas, a cafe, winding paths for running, biking, rollerblading, and skateboarding, viewing stations with turtle-safe lighting, and less-crowded access to the beach!

Stroll along South Pointe Park's 450-foot pier and savor the beautiful view of yachts passing by with the stunning Downtown Miami skyline as background-- it looks especially enchanting at sunset!

The South Pointe Pier is also a famous gathering spot for fishing, kayaking, surfing, and jet skiing, so if you're raring to share more "firsts" with your partner, don't hesitate to try your hand at these exciting pastimes!

4) Pair the beach experience with a classic "surf 'n turf" spread at Smith & Wollensky - Miami Beach 

1 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139

After an exhausting time outdoors, a hearty dinner spread at Smith & Wollensky is in order, a prime SoFi steakhouse with romantic oceanview dining just within the South Pointe Park's perimeters!

Bring your date (and your appetite) as Smith & Wollensky covers the meat, fire, wine, and culinary craftsmanship for a magical oceanfront dinner to remember!

We're talking USDA Prime steaks, lobsters, lamb chops, freshly caught seafood, American Wagyu, Veal chops, and more, served indoors in a wood-inspired, cozy dining area or at a stylish outdoor deck alongside the stunning skyline views!

Pair that mouthwatering meal with Smith and Wollensky's award-winning wines and call it a day — or not!

More of SoFi awaits!

4) Let the good times roll at Nikki Beach 

1 Ocean Dr, Miami Beach, FL 33139

Don't want this date to end just yet?

I've got the perfect excuse to extend the ROMANCE 'til the wee hours of the morning!

Lovers, put on your best outfits and get ready to enter a "SUMMER" state of mind on the comforts of South Fifth's white sandy stretches — it's time for your romantic night-out at Nikki Beach Miami, a quintessential South Beach landmark since 1998!

Renowned for being one of Miami Beach's top tourist destinations and an Instagram hotspot in its own right, Nikki Beach Miami is a gigantic oceanfront complex that's a beach club, tiki bar, award-winning restaurant, and nightclub in one.
