Guide to Celebrating Father’s Day in Miami

While every day of the year is a good time to show appreciation for pops, Father’s Day is a great excuse to truly spoil him. In Miami, you can treat him to a delectable feast with drinks and cigars, take him fishing in the turquoise waters, or even just enjoy a round of golf on the city’s green courses.

Father’s Day is always a welcome celebration for the team at Miami Culinary Tours, since it’s the perfect opportunity to show off the city’s culinary scene either through our guides or our Miami Food and Culture Tours!

We’ve created this guide to Father’s Day in Miami to help you find some fresh inspiration on how to celebrate this special time. Keep reading for our top suggestions, or feel free to contact us with any questions about our tours.

Go on a Miami Fishing Charter

Florida is world-renowned for its fishing and Miami is a prime location for fishing charters. With numerous boat tours operating in the city, you and the family can set sail into the deep waters and try your luck at catching some incredible species. 

Fish you may be able to catch include marlin, tuna, mahi, grouper, snapper, amberjack, and sailfish — the fastest fish in the world. If you’re feeling tough, some Miami fishing charters even target sharks, including tiger sharks, hammerheads, and black tips!

Whether you want to treat your dad to brunch, lunch, or dinner for Father’s Day, Miami has countless excellent restaurant choices. 

For a classic pub atmosphere, you can’t go wrong with Batch Gastropub. Serving good ol’ American fare, with dishes such as baby back ribs, fried chicken and waffles, and shrimp and lobster rolls, you’re guaranteed to be satisfied. You can wash it all down with their signature and classic cocktails or a beer. 

If you’re in the mood for some Latin American cuisine, Jaguar will sate your cravings. Celebrating Miami’s diverse flavors, this restaurant serves up different menus for brunch, lunch, and dinner, giving you endless culinary options. Its ceviche is iconic!

Have a Round of Golf with Dad in Miami

What better way to spend a day with dad than on the golf course? Miami has multiple courses to choose from, including both public and private options. At Crandon Golf at Key Biscayne, you can practise your swing while admiring the ocean views. The Miami Beach Golf Club offers a pristine course with 18 holes. Dating back to 1923, this golf club is a favorite among locals and visitors, and also has an excellent restaurant on-site for you to refuel after your activity.

For some fun for the whole family, swap your golf clubs for a putter and enjoy some mini-golf! Some golf courses, such as Palmetto, have mini-golf courses alongside their 18-hole courses. Otherwise, you can choose from one of many lively individual mini-golf courses in the city!

Make a Toast at Miami's Breweries

If your dad is a fan of craft brews, you simply must take him to Miami’s local breweries. At the Biscayne Bay Brewery Company, you can sip on Miami-inspired tropical IPAs in the revamped, historic post office of downtown Miami. South Beach Brewing Company serves a selection of refreshing beers, including sparkling ales you can enjoy while sitting outside. For a more lively atmosphere, the Magic 13 Brewing Company has one of the best live music venues in the city, offering the perfect complement to their vibrant beers.

Explore Miami’s Great Outdoors 

For a more adventurous Father’s Day, Miami offers plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy. In Oleta State River Park, you can hit the mountain biking trails or go stand-up paddle boarding through the mangrove forests. If you want to fully immerse yourself in nature, you can even stay overnight in the cozy cabins. 

Beyond fishing, Miami’s oceans are ripe for exploring. Snorkeling, scuba, diving, kayaking, surfing, and more are all on the cards. In Biscayne National Park, you can dive underwater to explore coral reefs and shipwrecks for a truly unique Father’s Day experience!
