A Romantic Valentine’s Day Escape to Litchfield Beach

This Valentine’s Day, skip the cheesy card and box of chocolates and instead, treat your loved one to a romantic getaway to Litchfield Beach. An ideal place to escape with your sweetheart, this area is filled with a plethora of activities from sampling wine to exploring gardens of art. If you’re looking for the perfect way to spend the day, here is our recommendation for making the most of the romantic holiday:

Sip & Stroll

Grab a cup of coffee for you and your significant other and head to the beach to sip and stroll. You’ll have a front-row seat as the sun peaks over the horizon and lights up the sky with vibrant hues of orange and pink. Spend the morning enjoying each other’s company, searching for shells, and listening to the calming sounds of the crashing waves.

 

Shop for a Sweet Souvenir

Litchfield offers a variety of quaint outdoor shopping areas where you can find a sweet souvenir for your loved one. At the Hammock Shops Village, you’ll discover everything from boutique clothing stores to handcrafted treasures. Stop by Coastal Wine Boutique for a wine and cheese pairing, check out The Christmas Mouse for an ornament or two, and make sure to visit the Original Hammock Shop for a hammock weaving demonstration. Hungry? Grab a bite to eat at Local or BisQit.

Love in Full Bloom 

You’ll discover love is in full bloom at the beautiful Brookgreen Gardens. Spend the afternoon meandering through the sculpture gardens and underneath the branches of the live oaks. If you’re interested in reliving those precious moments you had on your wedding day, you’ll have the opportunity to renew your vows at the Romance in the Garden event. Two nondenominational ceremonies will be held at the boat landing at Brookgreen Creek, each followed by a reception at the Leonard Pavilion. Every couple will receive a personalized certificate, a professional photo, champagne for a toast, and a box of goodies.

Wine & Dine

As day fades to evening, it’s time to wine and dine your date at one of the award-winning restaurants found in the area. Enjoy fresh seafood at Bistro 217, a juicy steak at Frank’s & Frank’s Outback, or a plate of homemade Italian cuisine at Caffe Piccolo. You can’t go wrong with any of these spots and make sure to order a decadent dessert to cap off your magical day.

This Valentine’s Day, give the best gift of making memories by the sea with a romantic vacation to Lachicotte.
