Four Fantastic Father’s Day Activities for the Whole Family

The Central Coast Team | June 25, 2024 @ 12:00 AM

June 16th is almost here! What, you ask, is this momentous date? 


It’s the day we get to shower the remarkable men in our lives with love and appreciation for all they do–Happy Father’s Day!


Dads come in all shapes and sizes, passions and quirks. They wear many different hats from being a “big kid” to coaching to rule-maker to, well, “dad.” 


Our fathers are unique and wonderful in their own ways, but most importantly, through thick and thin, they show up. 


Since our dads aren’t one-size-fits-all, the ways we celebrate them shouldn’t be either. Here are a few fun ideas that double as both experiences and gifts for all ages and interests!


A Snazzy Father’s Day Central Coast Drive


Imagine the wind blowing through your hair while taking in the Central Coast’s stunning ocean views or breath-taking vineyards in style. Extravagance tops the menu when you rent an exotic dream car–a Lamborghini, Rolls Royce, Ferrari, Bugatti, Aston Martin, Porsche, or Maserati, to name a few, courtesy of Instant Luxury Rentals. Contact them at (877) 736-8553, or visit them at www.antluxuryrentals.com for more information. Your wish is their command.


A Father’s Day Geocaching Family Affair


Who’s up for a treasure hunt? Explorer dads and kiddos will have a blast with this super fun, easy—and did we say, free–activity. Even better, no bulky equipment needed from your home or storage unit. 


Simply use your GPS device or an app to locate thousands of local hidden caches. A few favourite apps include:


Geocaching–the official app

Geooh GO–this app includes a built-in Whereigo player and TB scanner, avoiding the need to connect with multiple apps

WhereYouGo–the unofficial Whereigo app 


To begin, gather as a family, devise a plan to discover buried treasures, and map it out. Before you know it, your family will embark on an adventure brimming with amazing memories!


Father’s Day Need for Speed!


No need to travel far for an adrenaline-pumping outing! Look no further than our own backyard! The Santa Maria Speedway is back with an event-filled family entertainment lineup for fans of all types and ages! From newcomers to seasoned pros, everyone is welcome!

Father’s Day is Together Day 


What do dads treasure most? Above all else, they value quality family time, no bells or whistles needed. 


Perhaps your incredible guy desires a little R&R in your own backyard, sipping a cold beverage while the family takes over grilling duties. After devouring a delicious meal, how about some lively activities? Cornhole, mini golf or croquet, or even volleyball depending on available space. Or maybe a hilarious, age-appropriate take on everyone’s favorite game, “Cards Against Humanity”–“Kids Against Maturity”! And what sweeter way to top off the gathering than a good, old-fashioned pie-eating contest (for the little ones, try mini pies)! 


We can already hear the laughter as we delight in the magical memories being created!


This heartfelt holiday isn’t about gifts and big to-do’s. It’s about precious time spent together recognizing the fabulous men in our lives. 


We appreciate you. Thank you for all you do. 


Happy Father’s Day!
