Date Plan ① - #Vanlife Date Experience
Earlier this year, we had the opportunity to experience a 2-night #vanlife date through our partnership with Nomad Be Happy.
We got to immerse ourselves in the outdoor scene that makes Chattanooga so lovable, and we soaked up some relaxing and refreshing time together.
We highly recommend booking a van with Nomad Be Happy for a 2- or 3-night date experience that you will never forget.
Nomad Be Happy offers a unique vantage point to explore Chattanooga and beyond. We loved the chance to get away and into nature, without the hassle of tent camping and all the packing and preparation it requires. They’ve truly thought of everything to include in their van rentals, so all you have to do is relax and enjoy.

Date Plan ② - Paddleboarding Date Adventure
A paddleboarding date is just what you need to relax and unwind together this summer. Paddle along the peaceful waters around Chattanooga for a refreshing and unique date experience.
Outshine Adventures offers various options for guided paddling, including a bat cave tour at Nickajack Cave, which is perfect for beginners or intermediate paddlers who want a unique paddling adventure and the opportunity to observe obscure wildlife up close. Or, go with the flow for a guided and equipped paddle down the beautiful Tennessee River Gorge.

Date Plan ③ - Iced Tea + Antiquing Date
If you’re looking for an indoor option to stay cool and relax together this summer, how about sipping on a glass of refreshing iced tea, followed by a visit to the antique store?
Grab a spot inside the beautiful Wildflower Tea Shop & Apothecary and choose from their selection of delicious teas and lattes. After tea, stroll over to Mostly French antique store.
Take your date to plunder through aged treasures and enjoy the beauty and unique character of antiques. Shop for a new addition to your home or simply meander to enjoy the outing.

Date Plan ④ - Date to the Aquarium
There’s not much cuter than watching a couple of penguins cuddling or the scurry of otters playing together. With a date to the Tennessee Aquarium, you can enjoy both, plus the views of a variety of other amazing creatures.
Explore the aquarium together as you take in all the beauty and wonder of the unique exhibits and their residents.
Pro tip: Be sure to take some extra time for the Stingray Bay touch tank and the Butterfly Garden - those are our favorite parts of our experience at the aquarium.
