Planning Dinner on the Beach for Valentine's Day 

Are you looking for the perfect date night with your partner this Valentine's Day? Well, here is an excellent idea for you! Consider planning dinner on the beach for Valentine's Day. Follow along if this sounds like something you are curious about doing but need help executing it. 

Packing Your Basics 

If the necessary things aren't packed, your romantic beach night might not go as planned. Make sure you pack these essentials. 

• Wine or drink of choice 
• Wine glasses or cups. 
• Dinner- the most important 
• Utensils for dinner and dessert. 
• Desserts like chocolates and fruit. 
• Flowers for a romantic touch. 
• Battery candles to light a pathway. 
• Blanket to sit on instead of sand. 
• Pillows to lie back on or look at stars. 
• Towels in case you want to take a walk in the water. 

Best Dinner Foods for the Beach 

Finger foods and bite-sized foods are the easiest to take to a beach picnic. Another idea is to make a cheese and fruit platter along with a premade dinner in a basket. 

Recommended Dinner Foods for the Beach: 

1| Oysters, shrimp, clams, and like foods in a gallon-size bag with ice surrounding it in a cooler. You can also pack hot sauce and crackers to go along with it. 

2| Steak bites in an insulated bag paired with raw veggies and a homemade dip. 

3| Order takeout from a nearby restaurant. If you go this route, you don't have to worry much about packing. The food is already cooked, you don't need plates, you can eat out of your to-go container, choose different things to eat instead of the same, and quickly dispose of your dinner after your evening out. 

Beach Desserts for Valentine's Day 

Just like your main entree, you want your Valentine's Day desserts to be beach-friendly and delicious. After all, it is the "topping" at the end of a beautiful night! 

Here are a few suggestions for your Valentine's beach desserts: 

1| Strawberry Cheesecake in a jar 

2| Chocolate or Vanilla Cupcakes 

3| Blueberry Crumb Bars 

4| Blondie Brownies
