!!''Summer Lovers'' provides examples of the following tropes:
* CantActPervertedTowardALoveInterest: Cathy has read some books on sex and tries an experiment where she ties Michael to a bed and drips candle wax on him. He doesn't like it, and tells her not to read any more because he doesn't want to know what she might find next.
* EuropeansAreKinky: There is a lot of nude beach footage.
* {{Fanservice}}
* GoodTimesMontage: Set to the [=Pointer=] Sisters' "I'm So Excited."
* UsefulNotes/{{Greece}}
* HappyEnding
* RomanticComedy
* SceneryPorn: Absolutely, as MANY of the settings were used BECAUSE of their attractiveness.
* ShoutOut: The characters attend an outdoor screening of Film/TheThreeStooges' short ''Hoi Polloi'', that has Greek subtitles.
* SkinnyDipping: Quite a few scenes
* {{Tagline}}: "They Spent a Summer of Love - to the Sounds of 'Music/{{Chicago}}'"
