In some ways, planting the most romantic holiday of the year in the middle of winter is quite a poor idea, until you remember that the cold weather makes you want to snuggle close to your partner. Valentine’s Day is a day best celebrated on colder days, and if you can add in the romance of the winter sea, perhaps with a visit to Cape Hatteras, it makes you realize just how brilliant the timing of the holiday is! And don’t forget, a cozy romantic getaway will enhance the experience even more, and this guide to your Valentine’s Day in the Outer Banks, especially on Cape Hatteras and your stay in our Lighthouse View love nests will prove to your Valentine just how much he or she is loved!
Hand in Hand
Remember when you were first dating and you always had to be touching each other? High school students would walk side by side with one hand in each other’s pocket and more seasoned adults would hold hands everywhere they went. That constant need to connect stopped somewhere between your first and third child, but your Outer Banks Valentine’s Day visit to Cape Hatteras is the perfect time to reinstate the rule, especially when strolling along shore’s edge. On Valentine’s Day, we aren’t going to suggest rising at sunrise, but that doesn’t matter; any time you get to walk on the beach is the most romantic of times, and as you hold hands, the surf roars, and the sun shines, you might just fall in love all over again.
All That Glitters
Yes, your vacation is your Valentine’s gift, but when you look into her eyes, shining with excitement, you may find yourself wanting to buy a more tangible reminder of your romantic retreat, and Family Jewels, located at 56910 North Carolina Highway 12, can provide that in the form of something shiny. Offering handmade jewelry that will make her smile even brighter, the key to a happier holiday lies in all that glitters.
Outer Banks Valentine’s Day Getaway and A Meal with a View
You can make a perfectly wonderful and romantic meal in the fully equipped kitchen of your romantic cottage overlooking the sea, but Valentine’s Day is supposed to be celebrated by both, and a romantic meal with water views at Hatteras Sol Waterside Grill, 58646 North Carolina Highway 12, offers the perfect spot. We recommend an early dinner so you can watch the sun set as you dine and then return home to Lighthouse View afterward for more romance and comfort.
