Dad, we see you. Lugging around all that beach gear. Patiently teaching them how to boogie board. Refereeing the inevitable squabbles. Fathers (and father figures) are the super champs of the summer vacation. Celebrate Dad this Father’s Day or any day, with one of these fun things to do in Palm Coast and the Flagler Beaches.

Things to Do with Dad on Father's Day Weekend:
