Ormond Beach
Just north of the excitement and activity of Daytona Beach, Ormond Beach has the feel of a smaller beach town where visitors can relax and enjoy the seaside atmosphere along with state and local parks, cultural sites, art galleries, and more.
Kayak, surf, rent a boat, or take a dip in the Atlantic Ocean. For a day of outdoor adventure away from the beach, the city’s Central Park has 150 lush acres to explore with its trails and waterways.
Drive the 30-mile Ormond Scenic Loop and Trail, see the winter home of John D. Rockefeller, now The Casements cultural center, and explore the shops of Fountain Square Village on Granada Boulevard.
For dinner, stop in for a seaside feast at The Beach Bucket Bar and Grill.
Visit Daytona Beach Area Convention & Visitors Bureau to plan your stay.
