Date Night Ideas in Bradenton and SarasotaIt doesn't need to be a special occasion to schedule a date night. In fact, sometimes the best nights out on the town with someone special are those that are spontaneous.

If you struggle with planning the perfect date night, here are several options in Bradenton and Sarasota that your significant other willremember forever:

1. Take a Scenic Drive

A key part of date night is spending quality time together, and you don't need to spend a lot of money to accomplish this. Florida is rich in quiet, scenic back roads that are worth exploring. Some suggestions include the Tamiami Trail (stretches from Sarasota to Hillsborough County line) and the Lemon Bay/Myakka Trail Scenic Highway (approximately 30 minutes South of Sarasota). These quiet roads include gorgeous scenery and a few swimming holes along the way. They also offer a rich history of the Sunshine State. Pack a picnic dinner for a casual, yet romantic meal.
