Mother’s Day is upon us and if you have yet to decide how to treat the mom in your life, we’re here to help! Whether you’re celebrating your mom, your wife, or another mom in your life, we’ve put together a few suggestions for this weekend. Here are six ways to celebrate the mom in your life along the Emerald Coast!

Take her fishing

Pelican Adventures is running an awesome Mother’s Day special! With one paid fishing trip, you can take your mom for free on the Vera Marie for 6-7 hours on the Gulf of Mexico. What a fun way to make Mother’s Day memories!

Treat her to brunch at the Gulf

The Gulf will be hosting a Mother’s Day brunch special! It will be $10 for kids and $30 for adults with bottomless mimosas! Brunch starts at 10AM on Mother’s Day.

Sip and Shop for Charity

On Mother’s Day from 1PM-4PM, the Henderson will be hosting a sip and shop event benefitting the Sonder Project. There will be a mimosa bar, silent auction, and many local venders to shop from!

Take her to Paint and Party at The Hub

At the Hub on Mother’s Day, you can treat your mom to 1/2 Price mimosas all day and a step by step painting class. The class starts at 2 pm under the pavilion. You can grab tickets and reserve seats today for $35! Vivo Salon will also be on site with complimentary “Mini Massages for Mom”.

Celebrate a day early with free paddleboard yoga

Emerald Coast Paddleboard is offering free paddleboard yoga classes on Saturday, May 11. They will provide the board and equipment, but you’ll need to sign up in advance!

Take her on a sunset cruise

Cattywampus Eco Adventures is offering half off for moms on their Mother’s Day sunset cruise. The cruise starts at 5 pm and includes as champagne toast!


Hopefully these ideas will help you decide how to treat the mom in your life for Mother’s Day. Along with these suggestions, many local restaurants are hosting Mother’s Day brunches. Take her out and avoid her feeling the need to clean the kitchen!
