Are you ready to enjoy a cheeky day of sex in the great outdoors? Outdoor Intercourse Day is the perfect excuse to take intimacy beyond the bedroom and into the wild (or at least somewhere more exciting than the sofa). There are so many great ways to enjoy Outdoor Intercourse Day, but it’s important to do it safely and respectfully. Let’s take a look at how you can turn up the heat by venturing outside, where to have sex outdoors and how to have sex outdoors while staying discreet and respecting your surroundings.
What is National Outdoor Intercourse Day?
While it hasn’t quite got the same loyal following as Valentine’s Day, National Outdoor Intercourse Day is still a great way to enjoy passion and intimacy with your partner. The day’s date (8th May) is a nod to the "69th of March," a hilarious reference that aligns with the date's position in the calendar.
Though not an officially recognised holiday, National Outdoor Intercourse Day has gained popularity in recent years through social media and online communities. National Outdoor Intercourse Day is a great opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and experiment with sexual intercourse outdoors.
Where to Have Sex Outdoors
When it comes to outdoor intimacy, location is everything, not only to set the right mood but also to make sure you’re safe and not breaking the law. A popular spot for outdoor intimacy is on secluded forest trails, particularly lesser-known walking routes or woodland areas that are away from the main paths. Dense foliage can also provide you with natural cover and the sounds of nature can help mask noise!
Some coastal areas, especially during off-peak hours, can be surprisingly deserted. If you go during the early morning or just after sunset, you can have fun with sexual intercourse outdoors, while watching the tides.
If you're camping, your own tent is fair game. Just make sure you’re not too near other campers to avoid any red faces. If you’re new to sexual intercourse outdoors, you might want to experiment in the comfort of your car by parking up at rural viewpoints or rarely used lay-bys, especially at night. Just keep an eye out for passing traffic.
How to Have Outdoor Sex
As exciting as National Outdoor Intercourse Day can be, a little preparation goes a long way. You should always plan ahead and choose your location in advance, preferably during daylight. It’s best to look for places that are secluded, legal (or at least low risk) and not frequented by the public, such as secluded lay-bys or quiet country paths.
Make sure you have essentials such as blankets, wet wipes and tissues, and sex lube. It’s a good idea to use water-based lube as it’s easier to clean off, particularly if you bring extra water bottles with you that are specifically for wiping yourself down.
You might also want to spice things up by bringing your favourite sex toys, whether it’s dildos, vibrators or another treasure in your toy collection.
What Time of Day Is Best for Enjoying Outdoor Sex?
Early morning (particularly around sunrise) or dusk are generally quiet, while still giving you some visibility if you’re out in the middle of nowhere. You might also want to try having sexual intercourse outdoors late at night when there’s a very low chance of being interrupted, but you’ll need to be extra cautious due to the low visibility. Aside from being interrupted, you’ll also need to watch where you’re walking, sitting and lying down to avoid injuring yourself. Try to avoid outdoor intercourse during broad daylight as you’re more likely to be discovered, which could land you in hot water.
How to Make Sure Both Partners Feel Safe and Comfortable
Sexual intercourse outdoors should be a fun adventure, so it’s important you make sure both you and your partner feel secure, respected, and relaxed. Before you head out, you need to have a conversation about expectations and boundaries to make sure you’re both on the same page. You should also pick a location together to find somewhere that feels safe for you both, while also being discreet and away from prying eyes.
However and wherever you decide to celebrate National Outdoor Intercourse Day, make sure you do it safely and respectfully. With the right planning, a touch of discretion, and open communication, you can enjoy the thrill of the outdoors while keeping things respectful and risk-free.
