Designated one of the most romantic cities in America, San Francisco boasts of tantalizing scenery. Maybe it's the climate, or the beautiful Golden Gate Bridge, or the beaches made for long walks at sunset. Maybe the parks sprinkled with couples strolling hand in hand entice others to join in by hiking, biking, or just being together. Other outdoor activities draw couples to the city, like a romantic sunset cruise in the San Francisco bay.

For a full day's fun, check out some of the many spas available. Schedule a couple's massage at one of the many day spas in the area for a truly romantic experience. You won't forget this experience anytime soon. And while you could pick any spa across the country for such an experience, nothing beats the spas in San Francisco: you'll find as many spas as you will Starbuck's, and you can choose the best for you.

Check out the vineyards while seeking a romantic spot. San Francisco sits just a hop, skip, and jump from some of the most famous vineyards in America. Don't forget to check ahead with the wineries you want to visit since some require appointments for tours. Visiting the gorgeous countryside and enjoying the luxurious taste of wines will set the stage for a romantic outing, but remember to taste responsibly.

For a fun afternoon, consider a picnic at the Golden Gate Park. Rent a rowboat once you're done snacking or ride around the lake on bikes. Let your imagination soar as you run with your sense of romance for the day. The most romantic things are not planned, but instead they just happen as spur of the moment gestures that touch loved ones more than a planned activity ever could.

To impress your loved one, consider a date at the Equinox, the revolving restaurant and bar atop the Hyatt Regency Hotel. Sure you'll have to fork over more for this dinner, but the spectacular view will soon make you forget what you're paying for the food.

The art loving couples will enjoy San Francisco's museums and galleries which provide plenty of fodder for discussion. Even the art novice might find himself surprised by enjoying the diverse art in the city.

If you're going to make the trip to San Francisco, you have to visit either Fisherman's Wharf, China Town, or Little Italy. Not only can you find great food and intriguing sites, but you'll experience a taste of cultural diversity unlike any you can find in one city today. Not visiting these spots likens itself to visiting New Orleans and skipping over the French Quarter.

Just a state of mind, romance can find itself blossoming from a seed into a beautiful flower thanks to the atmosphere of San Francisco. Check it out today.
