In addition to the great beach, trendy restaurants, and plenty of other tourist locations, Daytona Beach is also full of rich history. The Museum of Arts & Sciences offers the perfect opportunity to take in some of the history surrounding both Daytona and other areas in our county. Although I consider myself a frequent visitor of Daytona Beach, I had never visited the museum and was pleasantly surprised to discover all that Museum of Arts & Sciences had to offer.

Being the frozen yogurt lover that I am, I was very excited when I heard about a new frozen yogurt shop in Daytona Beach. Rhokkoh’s Frozen Yogurt, located on 
As I walked into the store, I was immediately impressed by the large variety of items the store carried. The front of the store is set up like a typical surf shop. Beach towels, Daytona Beach hoodies, sunglasses, and flip flops lined the pastel painted walls. As I made my way past the beach ware, the store turned into a scene straight out of Gator nation.
When I think of Daytona Beach, it’s easy to picture the casual beach days complete with mornings at the shore, mid-day trips to the surf shops and nights playing mini golf. Although Daytona Beach is home to all of those things, I discovered a different angle of the beach town last weekend. A walk around Tom Cook Jeweler gave me a chance to experience the sophisticated side of Daytona.
Shrimp, shrimp and a little of everything else, Bubba Gump Shrimp Company is true to the movie with a little something for all. One of my best friends Anne and I recently partook in a girls only afternoon lunch at the Forrest Gump themed eatery located on the ground floor of the Ocean Walk Shoppes.
I’ve always thought of Ponce Inlet as one of the “hidden secrets” of Daytona Beach. I’ve spent a lot of time on the beaches in the Daytona area and when I mention Ponce Inlet, most have never heard of it.
For the first time ever, winter in Daytona Beach will have dazzling decorations and special events! Guests that come Beachside will be transported into a winter wonderland filled with holiday treats, music, ice skating and a spectacular spectacle of dancing lights all set on the dazzling Atlantic Ocean!
If you can’t wait for Bike Week in March, Biketoberfest ® in Daytona Beach is just the answer. On-track motorcycle events at the Daytona International Speedway and demonstration rides on the newest machines from top manufacturers are held throughout the long weekend.
You can smell the sweet aroma before you step inside the Old Spanish Sugar Mill Restaurant at De Leon Springs State Park. In this friendly, family-style dining room, delectable pancakes sizzle to a golden brown on a griddle right in the middle of your table. But the best part is you can make them yourself!
When I arrived at Go Kart City, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the location offered more than the name suggests. In addition to go carting, guests can also work on their batting average in the batting cages, perfect their swing with a round of mini golf, and play in the arcade.
The opportunity to relax is one of the best parts about being in a beach area like Daytona. Another nice thing is being able to go out for a meal rather than having to cook one yourself. Although I love to cook, it’s nice to have someone else make the meal while I relax and enjoy the scenery; especially when the food is delicious and the scenery is beautiful. My recent lunch experience at Boondocks offered the perfect balance of relaxing atmosphere and great food.
I think it’s safe to say chocolate is one of my favorite foods. I’m also very interested to learn where my food comes from, especially if I eat it a lot. As a frequent chocolate eater and someone who enjoys learning about food, I was more than happy to visit Angell & Phelps Chocolate Factory in Daytona Beach. Located right on Beach Street, Angell & Phelps Chocolate is both a historical landmark and a sweet destination for tourists and locals alike. Voted at one of the Top Ten Sweetest Destinations in America by TripAdvisor.com, Angell & Phelps Chocolate offers great chocolate and a great history to go along with it.
With bright red seats and roomy enough for small crowd, Captain Johnny Long’s Old Fashioned Airboat calls it’s Christmas, FL launch site home. On a cool morning Dan and I ventured along the St. John’s River with Captain Johnny and a few recurring customers.
Imagine sitting along the Suwannee River with overgrown trees and native rivergrass lining the banks. The same can be found right here at the RiverGrille Restaurant in Ormond Beach, Florida, along our very own beautiful Tomoka River.
When the skies are clear, the sun is shining and the hunger pains set in, Caribbean Jack’s Restaurant and Bar in Daytona Beach is the place to be. Named after John "Caribbean Jack" Gilbert, a famous prohibition rumrunner, Caribbean Jack’s offers an excellent choice of rum concoctions, awesome food and a beautiful view of the Halifax River.
Blocks away from our dining destination, my fellow foodie and I found ourselves inhaling the intoxicating aromas of slow-cooked scrumptious barbeque. We were salivating as we neared our upcoming meal. Nothing recharges the body after a day in the sun like some good ole’ Southern slow-cooked barbeque.
Are you ready to trade the exhilaration of the coast for a place that whispers like an empty cathedral? The narrow Old Florida road leading back to the 150-acre Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park is framed by soaring pines and dense woods eerily dripping with Spanish moss. 
Ponce Inlet was a popular spot to view the final launch of the space shuttle Discovery on the afternoon of February 24th, 2011. I was on the dock with some friends when I realized there were at least 75 other onlookers. It was amazing to see the many reactions and feel the excitement in the air when Discovery became visible just over the yachts in the marina.
After a session on the sundeck by the pool, when the ocean breezes have melted away the distractions of a techno driven life, you’re ready to get out there and see the sights.
From the moment the sun’s rays start to warm the beach in the morning, the salt air begins to work its magic. It’s your wakeup call to breathe in the beauty.
The Halifax Historical Museum is a true gem located in Historic Daytona Beach's original commercial district on the mainland side of the Halifax River.
Shell Game – Lucky shell gatherers
In hot sauté pan, sauté garlic, salmon and snapper pieces until fish is nearly done. Add heavy cream and bring to a boil.
My first favorite thing is playing with the cars. I like cars because you build them with engines, gears, four washers, and wires.
My first favorite thing is the pizza parlor. I like the pizza parlor because I can make pizza and choose from all the different toppings. The vegetables are made from colored and shaped foam pieces that look real.
By now everyone has started packing up their sweaters and bid a welcome farewell to the winter blues. The warm up is on and this summer's fashion trends are super hot!
The bikini was invented by a French car engineer, Louis Réard, in 1946 while he was running his mother’s lingerie business. The reaction it caused was explosive, leading him to name it the bikini after the Bikini Atoll in the Pacific, a group of tiny islands where nuclear weapons were being tested that year. 
The dolphin, sometimes called a porpoise, is the state’s saltwater mammal. The species most commonly found in Daytona Beach waters is the Bottlenose dolphin.
Sun Splash Park is a great way to beat the heat for free. With an interactive water fountain , the kids can cool off and burn some of that pent-up energy they store so easily.
Cypress trees live for thousands of years in wetlands and along rivers and lakes. But the mystery scientists have never solved is the peculiar woody growths called “knees” that grow above the soil on some trees.
Cruising along Daytona Beach within yards of the surf, you may be distracted by the sun burnished bodies stretched out on popsicle colored towels or the sight of the string of surfers perched on foamy waves. But beach safety is a priority here. It is all about courtesy and rules.
Brightly colored Hawaiian shirts confirm Florida’s kick-back surfer attitude and give you an immediate sense of relaxation. Choosing one becomes a personal statement that says a lot about your individuality.
Rip Currents occur when the waves returning back out to sea find a gap in the sandbar. Since that gap will be a path of least resistance for moving water, a channel of swiftly moving water is created.
Expect to unwind when you visit New Smyrna Beach. You’ll find our hometown atmosphere adds up to a pleasant change of pace from your everyday lifestyle. It’s time to relax and enjoy your favorite leisure activities.
Shopping is a necessary activity while on any vacation! Whether you’re picking up small trinkets for friends and family back home or splurging on a local piece of art to commemorate your trip; it’s just plain fun to browse for something special and Daytona Beach has just what you’re looking for!
Visitors choose the Daytona Beach area for many reasons, but mostly because it’s a perfect blend of things to do!
When the weather is cool, there’s nothing like a seaside bonfire to warm the night air. Add some drums, the mellow tones of a flute or guitars, and you have the makings of a therapeutic night under the stars.
Floridians are known for their own special style. They took the necessity of having to dress for hot, humid weather and ran with it. Florida’s "resort casual" has become the fashion of choice.
