6. Day At The Clock Tower Beach In The Old Port
It's the only free beach in Montreal and it's real purrdy. GO!
7. Dorval Plane Watching
Take a late night drive to this secluded spot off the TransCanada highway. Go all the way down the street until you reach the crescent to turn back and park the car close to the gates. Bring some snacks and if you’re a real romantic, forget the portable chairs, lay on the back of the car and look up as planes fly in right over your heads.
8. Hiking Up Mount Royal
Hooking up in the forest... hello spontaneity. There are tons of beautiful forest trails surrounded by glorious nature that will take your breath away. You're bound to get hungry after all the physical activity, so pack a picnic and eat right by Beaver Lake. For free parking, ask someone who's leaving the parking lot for their paid parking receipt, they don't need it anymore & lots of people spend muchos dollars thinking they'll stay the whole day but alas they don't.
9. Hide and Seek at IKEA
This is the MOTHER of all hide & seek spots. You get lost regardless if your playing. Spend the day here, rain or shine. Pick out your future kitchen/bathroom (make sure the toilet is right for you both) and play a two hour game of hide and seek! It's been done by many and it's freaking awesome. Hide behind couches, inside showers and under beds. Then grab lunch @ the IKEA Bistro. Enjoy their famous Swedish-style dishes or a local favourite.
10. Prowling For Vintage
Spend the day downtown hunting for vintage items and browsing through cool boutiques and thrift shops such as Les Folles Alliées and Kitsch ‘n’ Swell. Try on some funny hats, take some Instagram worthy pics and goof around with your Pookie as you gallivant on the streets of the Plateau, St. Laurent and St. Denis.
*Bonus* Skinny Dipping At Point-Claire Village/Chemain du Bord du Lac/Lakeshore
So we're not going to lie, this is illegal, but if you can get away with it & cross it off your bucket list, it'll be something you always remember. Who can forget the first time they ran nude screaming and swearing into cold water with their beloved.
These areas are pretty deserted around 1am & and are some of the few places with smooth entry ways into the water (so your not jumping in & hitting all kinds of rocks). Park your car somewhere on the main street and walk. Be stealth and F park security.
