When you think of family vacations what pictures do you conjure in your mind? Maybe it is the thrills of amusement parks, white-capped mountains begging to be skied, or the beautiful sun high over your favorite beach. I confess I’ve never been snow skiing and my vacation memories usually consist of the latter, the beach. Living in Florida most of my life the beach was an inexpensive and fun vacation for both adults and children. In fact, one of my favorite family vacations was an amazing trip to Daytona Beach.
Daytona Beach
Most people think “summer” when they think of the beach. However, when the weather is chilly up north and leaves are changing with the coming of fall is the perfect time here in Florida to visit the beach. The humidity is at bay and the breeze from the ocean rolls in and the day is picturesque and perfect for a vacation to a beach community. Daytona is the perfect place to take the family on a Fall Beach Escape.
My husband is actually not the biggest fan of beaches, so a vacation on the beach is not high on his list of favorite themes. However, Daytona Beach is more than just a beach! With their amazing Weekday Getaway Deals we both can get what we want. While I lounge on the beach or splash in the ocean with the kids he can be enjoying a relaxing day doing what he loves best, playing golf!
Daytona Beach Has Something For Everyone
After a day of fun in the sun for us both we can enjoy the city. Daytona Beach is full of shopping, festivals, dining, attractions, and amazing events. We always enjoy finding somewhere new to eat while vacationing and I secretly my husband does enjoy a little shopping. Even better are the fall festivals found at Daytona Beach the Festival Capital of Florida.
Fall Festivals
- Granada Grand Festival of the Art
- DeLand Craft Show
- Daytona Blues Festival
- Biketoberfest®
- Halifax Art Festival
- Daytona Turkey Run
As the temperatures continue to drop I bet some Warm Holiday Fun sounds appealing, doesn’t it? I am a Florida girl through and through and can’t imagine living anywhere else. We may not see the changing of the leaves but we also have beautiful green lawns all year round. As northerners close down their pool for the winter we can splash all year round and enjoy the sparkling blue of the inviting water. This is what makes Florida the perfect destination for vacations. Our weather is mild and instead of bundling yourself in layers of clothing you can adorn shorts and flip flops and tour the streets of Daytona Beach, enjoy a day of sun, a game of golf, and more!
