The world’s most famous beach, the birthplace of Speed Park, and home to the Jackie Robinson ballpark; Daytona Beach is the hot spot for fun in the sun, high speed, and history. Out door activities are endless in this exciting city and among these activities are air balloon rides, sailing, and cruises. Daytona is a popular vacation spot and tourists are never lacking a fun activity. Whether one wants to take a walk along the boardwalk, sail the seas, tour the speedway, visit the ballpark, or view artwork in the Andy Warhol Exhibit.

Taking a look at the historic features of Daytona Beach, the Speedway is a great place to start. The Daytona International Speedway is home to the Daytona 500 and is open to the public every day. Keep up with the latest NASCAR trends by visiting the gift shop after the birds eye view tour. Next, get a home run and visit the Jackie Robinson ballpark, where Jackie Robinson’s statue stands. Lastly, the Andy Warhol Exhibit is an interesting place to view historic photography.

Moving on to the more youthful aspects of Daytona Beach, taking a air balloon ride is the perfect way to see all the city has to offer from a birds eye view. March 28-30, the Balloon and Sky fest is a fun night and day air balloon show. Sailing is a nice way to relax and feel the cool, crisp ocean breeze. Fun Cat sailing offers daily three hour cruises on their sailboats and one can ride along the Intracoastal Waterway in Ponce Inlet.
