Walk out to the old gun battery above the harbour mouth to look for bottlenose dolphins, then follow the coast to Girdle Ness lighthouse.
Why it's a good date: Not many cities let you watch dolphins from the edge of town, and the view back over the harbour is great too. Pick a calm day, and warm up at the Greyhope Bay café beside the battery.
