Walk Marine Parade at golden hour

Classic for a reason. Stroll past the fountains, sound shell, beach, and sculptures. Great convo starter, and zero pressure.

Visit an art gallery together

The MTG gallery downtown is free and air-conditioned. Get cultured, share opinions, and maybe awkwardly talk about abstract shapes.

Sundown drinks at Monica Loves

A tucked-away cocktail bar with ambient lighting and a cool crowd. Good date spot if you want something moody and fun.

Coffee and book browsing

Start at Georgia or Six Sisters for a brew, then head over to Wardini or the secondhand bookshops. No pressure. Low spend. High vibes.
