19 Fun Date Ideas Around Boston for Couples

Amanda Banta said:  Sometimes a method of transportation is more than just driving from Point A to Point B. The ferry run by the MBTA can turn the ride through Boston Harbor into a romantic date night! After you board at Long Wharf, grab a window table or head to the open second deck if you want fresh air and unobstructed views of your journey. The ferry ride is beautiful any time of day, but it is exceptional as the sun is setting. Snacks, beer and wine are available for purchase on board. Consider visiting the restaurants and shops at the Hingham Shipyard while you wait for your return journey.

Amanda Banta said:  Take a trip down the memory lane of your childhoods with a night Pac Man, Skeeball and bumper cars at Salem Willows Arcade. It features a variety of old-school classic video games and newer favorite games. The arcade is part of Salem Willows Park, an oceanfront park with views of Salem Harbor and the North Shore. After you've crushed each other's high scores, grab a couple of ice creams then head down to the waterfront to end your night with a romantic walk along the shoreline.
