Daytona Beach has something for everyone -- the adventure of a city and the warmth, charm, and friendly atmosphere of a small town. One of Florida's primary tourist destinations, Daytona Beach is located on the central east coast of Florida and is known as the World's Most Famous Beach. The area's many lakes and rivers along with the ocean offer an endless variety of recreational activities, such as freshwater and saltwater fishing, sport fishing tournaments, sailing, surfing, snorkeling, and swimming. During the winter, you can always head for one of the nearby springs, where temperatures remain in the low 70s all year round. Swimmers and snorkelers can spend their time shoulder-to-shoulder with the bluegills, the tilapia, and the manatees that swim up the St. Johns River every winter. The springs, which are fed with a flow of millions of gallons of water a day, also offer some of the best inner tubing in the area.
