Spice up Father’s Day this year and give dad a weekend worth talking about. Virginia Beach offers something for every kind of dad, whether he likes offshore fishing, a one-of-a-kind surf lagoon, world-class vintage aircraft, coastal golf, live music or craft beer.
Fishing
Virginia Beach has a variety of ways for anglers to get their fix, like pier casting at Virginia Beach Fishing Pier and off-shore excursions with Afishinado Fishing Charters.
Aviation Museum
Dads interested in history and museums, Military Aviation Museum is the place to be. The museum is home to one of the world’s largest private collections of flying vintage military aircraft. It also has more than 50 World War I- and World War II-era planes on display.
Surfing
Atlantic Park is the perfect place to take a surf-loving dad. Or, if dad has never surfed before but is interested, he can participate in beginner sessions.
Golfing
Tee off on one of Virginia Beach’s top-designed local courses like Hell’s Point Golf Course or PGA Tour-quality Virginia Beach National Golf Club.
Hiking and Biking
Spend time outdoors while hiking or biking along miles of coastal trails in First Landing State Park, or try to spot the more than 300 species of birds calling secluded Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge home.
Breweries
The beer-loving dad will be delighted by Virginia Beach’s brewpub scene. Stop at local breweries such as Commonwealth Brewing Company and Back Bay Brew House Farmhouse for a laidback atmosphere and unique brews. Keep good times rolling at Tarnished Truth at Historic Cavalier Hotel, the nation’s first distillery in a hotel.
