This month, love is in the air as the country celebrates the most romantic holiday of the year. Make your Valentine’s Day extra special by enjoying one or more of the most romantic places to visit in LA. These are the perfect hot spots for you and your special someone to spend quality time together.
Griffith Observatory: The Quintessential Romantic Place to Visit
What could be more romantic than looking into the cosmos with your loved one? An icon of Los Angeles, the Griffith Observatory is located on the southern slope of Mount Hollywood in Griffith Park. It’s the best vantage point for seeing the world-famous Hollywood sign and has telescope viewing any evening with clear skies (and the building is open). And best of all, it has free admission. You and your sweetie can even watch a live show in the Samuel Oschin Planetarium. One thing to note is that you can not bring food or drinks of any kind to the Griffith Observatory. So if you want to wine and dine your partner, you’ll want to visit the Observatory before or after dinner. Or plan a picnic in Griffith Park.
Marina Del Rey: Romance on the Coastline
Marina del Rey is a gorgeous oceanside area with dining, water recreation, and harbor cruises. As one of the most romantic places to visit, you can’t go wrong with all it has to offer. For a romantic Valentine’s Day outing, enjoy the award-winning restaurants on the romantic harbor. Or, you can take a dinner cruise through City Cruises that includes entertainment and breathtaking views. If you and your date are up for something more exciting, take a turn on a paddle board or kayak, a surfing or diving excursion, or even charter a skippered sailboat.
