There's nothing quite like a case of the blues. It's no fun when you have it alone, but when you get together with fellow blues enthusiasts at the annual Knology Sea-Blues Festival, the blues are most definitely worth celebrating. The two day festival, usually held in May, features a variety of regionally and nationally recognized blues artists. This event is free to the public.

It is always fun to learn about the ocean and all of the life that makes its home there. But it is a completely different experience to actually be out on the water to see that life in action. Aquatic enthusiasts will most definitely enjoy that opportunity when they get on board for the Sea Life Safari Boat Tour. This two-hour excursion is associated with the Clearwater Marine Aquarium and provides participants the chance to look for dolphins, sea birds and other marine life as one of the aquarium staff member narrates the scenic ride to a shell island. One of the many highlights of the trip includes seeing a net pull that offers a chance to reach out and touch ocean wildlife before they are released back into their natural habitat.

Sharing time together is a truly essential ingredient to keeping that romantic flame burning. It also doesn't hurt to raise a glass to your love with the help of a fine bottle of wine. Take that idea a step further when you plan a special date to the Murielle Winery. This family-owned winery offers guided tours that show visitors all aspects of the wine-making process from the vineyard to the wine press to the bottle. Also, there are wine tastings held on Saturdays, so plan to make the trip to Murielle Winery this weekend for a romantic date that is worthy of a toast!
