Charms of the coast
One of the best things about dating in the Hawke’s Bay is that you’re never far from the sea. A great date idea for water-loving singles is to pack a picnic, get some local wine and make a beeline for Waimaramara Beach: the golden sands and clear waters make a truly stunning backdrop for an afternoon of lazy summer romance.
If you prefer to date close to town, head for brunch and coffee at Groove Kitchen Espresso. Not only is the coffee truly fantastic, they have great live music on Thursday nights. It’s the ideal mix of elegance and laid-back Hawke’s Bay style.

Napier-Hastings by night
For those who prefer their entertainment set to cruising speed, Hawke’s Bay nightlife is second to none. While there are many places to let your hair down, an equally great date night idea is to simply take a walk along Marine Parade. From crashing waves to soft sunset light, this is a beautiful place to spend the early evening.
Napier’s Thirsty Whale is another ideal location, perfect for a sociable drink on the terrace while you check out the views across the Ahuriri marina. Or, if you’re in Havelock North, try tapas and wine at Deliciosa, where Spain meets the Hawke’s Bay.

Head for the Hawkes Bay hills
Of course, a truly great local date has got to involve some wine – this is one of the world’s top wine regions after all! If you’re pushing the boat out, try heading to Elephant Hill, a stunning ocean-side winery that offers tastings, beautiful food and a gorgeous restaurant, all presiding over a swoon-worthy view.
For a more casual experience try the Clearview Estate ‘red shed’ restaurant in Hastings. The drinks area is famous for its beautiful sea views, while the shady, grapevine-canopied restaurant serves up tasty pizza. It’s the ideal first date!
