This list of romantic things to do in Wellington may give you a pleasant day or, an evening out of town, and maybe even revolutionise your relationship with a spectacular moment of romance.

1

Hire A Bike

Renting an electric bike and exploring the city at your own leisure is a fun and romantic activity that is perfect for couples. Switched on Bikes is a bike rental company that provides its services out of the Wellington Waterfront. You have the choice to explore at your own leisure or to schedule a guided tour with a local expert. On this excursion, you will travel Oriental Bay, through the long coastline to Miramar Peninsula, right up to Mount Victoria, where you will get the opportunity to take in breathtaking views of the harbour. Some of the top and best hotels in Wellington the likes of Oaks Wellington Hotel will help arrange such excursions for their guests. Make sure to inquire at your convenience.

Go to one of the performances at the Circa Theatre

The Circa Theatre can be found along the water's edge and has hosted more than 300 distinct acts throughout the course of its history. These performances have included everything from pantomimes including plays to drama and improv comedy. There are 2 distinct performance rooms, with Circa One being more suitable for high-quality shows and bigger crowds. The smaller studio known as Circa Two is perfect for more personal performances that allow for a deeper connection with the audience since they are just a few inches away from the stage.

Have a Drink at a Bar That Serves Cocktails

There are a number of trendy cocktail bars in Wellington that are perfect for a romantic evening out, such as the upscale Hippotamus Restaurant and Bar located just across from Wellington Harbour. On level 3 of the QT Hotel, you may relax with a margarita at the bar and take in the harbour views while taking in the magnificent, ornate décor. The Library, which may be found concealed in the middle of Courtenay Place, is yet another excellent option. Don't be fooled by the outer look; as you go inside, the bar's name will give away the sort of décor that has been used to create an intimate and evocative space.

Paddle Around the Harbour at Night on a Kayak in Wellington

When darkness falls, Wellington Harbour transforms into a spectacular scene to see. Fergs Kayaks provides a guided tour of the most stunning bays and coves along the coast as the sun begins to set. The trip begins at 5.30 pm and ends at 9.30 pm. There is also a possibility that you may have a close encounter with marine creatures such as dolphins, penguins, or perhaps the occasional whale. Paddling a kayak into the darkness of the night as the city's lights twinkle around you makes for some unforgettable moments.

Take a stroll in the Botanic Gardens

The Botanic Plants give couples a calm walk over 25 hectares of magnificent gardens and intriguing sculptures, beginning with a cable car journey with excellent harbour views. The Lady Norwood Rose Garden, with its café amid 25,000 tulips, is the ideal spot to pause for luncheon in the spring or early summer.
