• Beach Bum Paradise: Jacksonville boasts miles of gorgeous coastline with Atlantic Ocean waves and white sand beaches. Perfect for catching sunshine, building sandcastles, or trying your hand at surfing.
• River City Charm: The St. Johns River winds through the heart of Jacksonville, offering scenic boat tours, kayaking adventures, and a chance to spot dolphins.

• Daily Adventure: Jacksonville is a great launch pad for exploring other parts of Florida. Take a day trip to St. Augustine, the nation's oldest permanently occupied city, or head south to Orlando for theme park thrills.
