The sensation of crisp, cool air caressing your buns. Sunlight warming your erect nipples. I mean, what’s not to like about the great outdoors?! Without breaking any important council rules (LOL, exhibitionism), we’re here to remind you that leaving the house might just be what you need to ignite a little magic in your pleasure sessions. So, where shall we go today, the courtyard, the backyard or the balcony? Here are our tips for getting down and getting out.



Plot ahead.

But, planning?! For sex?! Yes, my friends, when the stakes are high, some preparation is key to not getting caught and – most importantly – arrested. It’s also helpful to consider these things ahead of schedule so that you can make the most of your time together and enjoy optimal conditions. And before all the slip, slop, slapping happens, make sure you’ve checked the weather forecast so you can manage avoidable, not to mention inconvenient, sunburn.

Inspect (and respect) your surroundings.

While the common residential backyard is a pretty ideal location for this sort of thing, having a backyard is a real privilege in this economy. Know that you can always branch out and seek secluded spaces like courtyards and balconies as suitable alternatives. For the best experiences, these spaces need to be safely located away from public scrutiny, supervision and exposure. If you are concerned about nosey parkers, we recommend added discretionary measures like a beach umbrella, some natural screening or at the very least, a tasteful picnic throw rug.

The (s)witching hour.

To make the most of your exciting exterior location, it pays to know the right time to engage in your debauchery. Peak times and foot traffic might impede your activities so always scope out the best times for action – so to speak.

Pack light.

And we’re not talking about finger sandwiches. Bring a go-kit with you so you can enjoy all of your usual pleasurements like lube, condoms, wrist cuffs and rope, plus the essentials like water and hand sanitiser, without having to Macgyver your way through your session. And if time is on your side, you might consider packing an actual picnic for the aftercare component of your session. Tea anyone?

Back it up.

Have a back-up plan. In case conditions aren’t so great, or worse, someone else has already scoped out the setting and is having their way in the wild (jealous). After all, you can always take it back indoors, to the bedroom, the bathroom, the cupboard under the stairs.

Bask in the afterglow.

Remember to check in with your partner(s) after your sessions. Not only does a little aftercare allow you to relish the experience and savour post-scene stillness, it sets the tone for open and honest communication, reflection and consideration in all of your intimate encounters. Aftercare isn’t simply about talking about your feelings, cuddling and forehead kisses (yes, please) it’s a chance to form stronger bonds and create even more electrifying connections in future.
