SilverRock Golf Course

Tee it up with Dad at the beautiful SilverRock Golf Course in La Quinta for a day of fresh air, fun competition, and a day in the sun. Take advantage of the scenery around you and play a quick nine, or take your time and enjoy the full 18. Either way, bring out your inner Rory McIlroy and take in the day at SilverRock (and we won’t tell if you choose to play from the forward tees).

Throw back a few with Dad on this brewery tour offered by Red Jeep Tours. Get a chance to taste the best of Coachella Valley Brewing Company and La Quinta Brewing Company. You will learn all about the micro-brew process and be able to enjoy the flavors that come out of these breweries, all while leaving the driving up to the experts at Red Jeep! This tour is only offered on Fridays and Saturdays though, so this is for more of a day-before celebration (and make sure to confirm the departure location when you call!).

Wet n’ Wild

Cool down at the Wet n’ Wild water park for a fun activity that is surely different than last year! This is a great game plan for the dad who has little kids. With slides called “Tidal Wave Terror” and “Sea Snake, ” how can you not have a great time? It’s not often that we get to let go and be kids again, so why not make this Father’s Day one of the days that you do.
