Jacksonville Beach

Situated on the Northeast coast of Florida, Jacksonville Beach is a laid-back, family-friendly destination full of opportunities for outdoor recreation, both on and off the water.

With a dazzling shoreline and year-round sunshine, beach and water activities are a must here. A quarter-mile-long, wheelchair-accessible fishing pier, beach volleyball courts, surf shops, and paddling outfitters make it easy to get outdoors. Dolphins and sea turtles are a few of the native animals that can be spotted while on the water.

Accommodations range from luxury resorts to budget hotels, and the bustling commercial areas offer a multitude of choices for restaurants and retail shopping. Visitors can browse the art market, take a walk through the museum, and check out the area’s kid-friendly attractions.
