The coastline of Greece is a stunningly beautiful place for any couple to relax and enjoy some romance. Possible activities include shopping, hiking through the mountains, exploring the beaches and checking out the world class museums Greece has to offer.

4. For those who want to escape the cold weather for Valentine’s Day, a great choice is California’s Laguna Beach.
