Ultimate To-Dos For a Hotter Summer With Your Significant Other

Looking to add a little more sizzle to your and your partner's Summer plans? Our friends at LELO came up with a list of activities for you and your significant other that are guaranteed to spice things up!

As we reach the dog days of Summer, you may be thinking more about cooling down than anything else, but don't let the sun set on these great opportunities to heat things up with your Summer love.

Hiking is one of our favorite couple activities: it's active, it exposes you to the beauty of nature, and it can be a little competitive, if you want. Whether you're interested in passionate intimacy while you take in dazzling vistas at the top of a mountain, or something a little kinkier off the beaten path (figuratively and literally!), getting out of the house and engaging in a little outdoor activity really gets your blood pumping for al fresco pleasure!

Vacations with a significant other are an amazing opportunity to grow closer through experiencing amazing new sights . . . but they are also expensive, are stressful, and take a ton of planning. Turn off your cell phones (there's no reception at THIS resort) and lock yourselves in the bedroom for two days for a holiday where there's plenty of Champagne, fresh fruit, and the masseuse is always available.

Thanks to some dedicated individuals, there are still a few drive-ins (or temporary drive-in setups) around that are great for a summertime visit. Go to a movie (that you've seen before) for some sneaky action. No drive-in around? There's no reason you can't create your own drive-in experience with your car and a laptop. Pro tip: bring a near-silent minivibe that's USB rechargeable.

While there may be nude beaches in your area, we suggest taking this activity to a private beach, if not your own backyard. Letting your partner see you with more exposed in public than usual is definitely a turn on, but fooling around in the middle of a beach is generally frowned upon. When you're secluded, it's much more fun to be very thorough in helping each other apply sunscreen. Has it been raining all Summer? Experiment with temperature by staying inside and substituting sunscreen for the warm oil of a massage candle.

Whether it's in the ocean, a lake, or a backyard pool, skinny-dipping is a time-honored Summer tradition. It cools us off and lets us get up to something just a bit naughty, perfect for creating an exciting memory with your partner. Just don't get caught!
