In the romantic beachy scene that is Starlet Town, there’s a large group of eligible bachelors and bachelorettes to choose from. Find out who you can date and how to get married in this Coral Island Romance Guide.
Coral Island Romance Options
For those who love a good romance aspect in a cozy farming sim, Coral Island will not disappoint. There are a total of 28 NPCs you can date and marry. You can date multiple at a time, although you do have to choose just one person to marry. One easy way to tell which characters are romanceable and which are not is if you see them in different outfits. Romance characters have three different outfits per season, including a swimsuit.
You also can marry your friend or significant other’s character in multiplayer mode. Three of the romance options listed here are merfolk — Denali, Miranjani, and Semeru. You won’t meet them until after you’ve played through a large amount of the Coral Island diving and you can’t romance merfolk until sometime in 2024 alongside some other new content. Keep these choices in mind as you begin thinking about romancing other options in the city.
In the charts below you’ll see all of the datable NPCs and their character-specific loved and liked gifts.

Universally Loved Gifts
The only item that is universally loved in Coral Island is the Pink Diamond. For the rest, you’ll have to find the items specific to each character. These Diamonds are found in the caverns at the wind mines or in some wind or mystery geodes once they’ve been processed at the blacksmith. This item can be duplicated using a Slime of Replication you get from the Lake Temple’s Precious Gems offering or through crafting after reaching level 10 in combat.
Universally Liked Gifts
There is a very large number of universally liked gifts in Coral Island that make it easy to build up a relationship with a simple liked gift each day. A few things that are a great, simple way to get going on this are vegetables (except brussel sprouts), mead, honey, gems and minerals, cheese, coffee, juice, wine, and pickled foods. While these aren’t all of the items, they are what I found to be some of the more simple things to find and make in large number to help you move on relationships quickly.
Dating in Coral Island
Dating in Coral Island is pretty much the standard process when it comes to farming sims. You interact with the characters you wish to pursue as much as possible, gifting them with the items they like or love, especially on their birthday which can be found on the calendar in the Community Center. To give a gift, you will put the item you want to gift on your quick select bar, have it highlighted, and hover over or approach the person you wish to give the gift to, selecting the gift option. A prompt will pop up to make sure you meant to gift the item, select yes and the gifting interaction will begin.
Marriage in Coral Island
To get married in Coral Island you will need to get your relationship to ten hearts. At this point, you will be given the option to propose. Once you’re married you will be able to have up to two children, and seeing them grown is a feature to be added in 2024.
