Summer officially begins this month and with it, the rainy season. If you are one of the lucky people who live here, you know, that if it starts to rain, just wait a minute or two and it will most likely pass. Simply stated, don't let a little rain stop your fun!

This month dads get extra love with Father’s Day. Here are some great summer activities to do with dads in mind. If sports are his thing, there’s plenty of public golf courses to choose from in the area. The IRC Shooting Range is open to the public and offers rifle, shotgun, clays, archery, and air gun practice. Our charming Sebastian River Area also boasts world-record sport-fishing! Check here for private fishing charters who will put you where the big ones live. Register or be a spectator at the Blue Water Open Off-shore Fishing Tournament this weekend out of Capt. Hiram’s Resort.
 
If dad’s a history buff, or even if he’s not, bring him to Mel Fisher’s Treasure Museum and Gift Shop and watch a film of Mel Fisher's legendary discovery and see authentic treasures from the salvaged shipwreck of the Atocha in Key West. You’ll also learn about the 1715 Spanish Plate Fleet that shipwrecked just off our coast, giving us our Treasure Coast name. The Sebastian Area Historical Museum has exhibits on the Ais Indians that inhabited the area as well as early agriculture and more. The Sebastian Inlet Fishing Museum showcases classic fishing pictures, videos, and vintage fishing gear and is located at the famous Sebastian Inlet State Park.
 
Finish off with a tour of our hometown breweries serving up local libations like Mel’s Gold, Old Mans Vienna Lager, and Big Daddy Voodoo Brown Ale. Want more ideas? Visit us first at the Pelican Porch Visitor’s Center for insider tips and tricks.
ON THE WATER
Since the Blue Water Open Tournament began, the Exchange Club of Sebastian, has donated over $750,000 to local charitable organizations, including those focused on the prevention of child abuse as well as scholarships for area youth.

TOURISM PARTNER SPOTLIGHT
Aunt Louise's Pizzeria in Sebastian has recently remodeled! Beautiful changes have happened to the seating areas and décor. You'll feel like you're suddenly vacationing in Italy. The look has changed but the pizza is the same amazing taste. In fact, it was voted #1 Pizza in Sebastian again by a recent Sebastian Daily survey. Not in the mood for pizza? Try a large calzone or Stromboli or a classic meal like veal parmigiana. Come see for yourself what all the fuss is about!
