Daytona Beach

1 of 3

Daytona Beach is located on the Atlantic coast, about 51 miles from Orlando. It is famous for the Daytona 500 NASCAR event hosted at the Daytona International Speedway. Even driving is permitted on Daytona Beach's lovely sandy beach. However, Daytona is more than simply the races: popular summer concerts are held at the Daytona Beach Bandshell stages.

The Daytona Lagoon water park, located near the ocean, has waterslides, go-karts, and laser tag. Visit the Sunglow Fishing Pier to observe dolphins or try your hand at fishing, the serene Basilica of Saint Paul, or the intriguing Museum of Arts and Sciences with the kids.
