Father's Day Activities

Celebrate Dad with North Florida Festivities

Whether it’s going to the beach, cooking out or going on adventurous excursions, the whole family will be happy! Most importantly, Dad will be happy too! Make sure to spoil him around these lovely areas with all the beauty, great food and family friendly activities that North Florida has to offer.

 

Fishing the Pier

Where: Fort Clinch Park, Fernandina Beach

If the fam is feeling a bit outdoorsy, consider fishing from the long pier at Fort Clinch Park and catch yourselves some dinner. Maybe take it back to BBQ in the backyard for a fresh caught meal. Fort Clinch is a must if you’re visiting Amelia Island. Along with fishing, the whole family can hike, camp or sit out by the water.

A Downtown Visit

Where: Main Street, Fernandina beach

 It’s always nice to take a walk along the historic  Main Street of downtown Fernandina Beach. Take a joy ride around town in a horse-drawn carriages for the full experience. Be sure to buy Dad something nice in one of the many shops along the way. Without a doubt, it’s a shopper’s paradise and a fantastic place to dine (ahem, check out Timoti’s Seafood Shak in Fernandina Beach).

Beach Day

If you’re closer to the Jacksonville area, Jax is the place for having the perfect beach day and it’s just a short drive to Downtown. You can even have your own cookout on the beach, since both charcoal and gas grills are permitted. What would make a beach BBQ grill out even better is Timoti’s famous Cajun Blackening Seasoning blend, a perfect rub for any chicken, seafood, steak, or veggies.
