Cruise the Lakes with Float On Boat Rentals

This year, ditch the standard gifts and give Dad an experience he’ll never forget—a day on the lake. Rent a boat from Float On Boat Rentals and cruise the beautiful waters of Lake Austin or Lake Travis. Whether you’re playing with the kids, relaxing with a cooler of drinks, or anchoring in a quiet cove, this is the ultimate bonding experience. Our captained and self-captained options make it easy to tailor the trip to your family’s vibe. Bonus: it’s a stress-free way to soak up the sun and make unforgettable memories.

Brewery & Distillery Hopping

If your dad enjoys a cold beer or a good whiskey, treat him to a day exploring Austin’s booming craft beverage scene. Head to Jester King Brewery for farmhouse ales and sprawling outdoor seating, or sip on small-batch spirits at Treaty Oak Distilling. Create your own tour by mapping out a few favorites and turning the day into a casual DIY tasting adventure. Many spots offer food trucks, live music, and family-friendly spaces—making it easy to spend the whole afternoon enjoying great vibes and even better drinks.

Outdoor Fun for the Active Dad

If your dad loves the great outdoors, there’s no shortage of adventure this Father’s Day in Austin. Hike through the Barton Creek Greenbelt, swim in the refreshing waters of Hamilton Pool, or rent bikes and cruise around Lady Bird Lake. For a unique experience, check out SUP (stand-up paddleboarding) rentals at Zilker Park or book a guided kayak tour at sunset.

Golf with a View

Make it a tee-rific day by booking a round at one of Austin’s scenic golf courses. Falconhead Golf Club and Avery Ranch Golf Club both offer stunning Hill Country views and well-kept greens. Want to keep it more casual? Try a round of mini-golf at Peter Pan Mini-Golf or head to Butler Pitch & Putt downtown for a relaxed round and some local brews.

Father’s Day Foodie Finds

Father’s Day in Austin isn’t complete without an epic meal. Start the day with breakfast tacos from Veracruz All Natural or Juan in a Million, then treat Dad to a legendary Texas BBQ lunch at Terry Black’s or Micklethwait Craft Meats. For dinner, book a reservation at one of Austin’s top spots like Odd Duck, Loro, or Interstellar BBQ. Or better yet—pack a picnic and dine lakeside after a day on the boat.

Live Music & Chill Vibes

For the music-loving dad, spend the evening enjoying Austin’s legendary live music scene. Head to iconic venues like The Continental Club or ACL Live for a memorable performance. For something family-friendly, check out free shows at local parks or grab dinner at a restaurant with a live band patio—like The Salt Lick in Driftwood.
