Jacksonville Beach — Where the Holidays Shine
Home to Deck The Chairs, Jacksonville Beach combines the character of a historic beach town with the energy of a vibrant oceanfront community.

During the holidays, Seawalk Pavilion and Latham Plaza become a gathering place for creativity, music, and celebration.

Travel south to discover scenic coastal landscapes, inviting beaches, golf destinations, and opportunities to enjoy Northeast Florida's natural surroundings.
Jacksonville — Arts, Culture & Adventure
Beyond the shoreline, Jacksonville offers an exciting mix of arts, history, dining, sports, and outdoor recreation. From the St. Johns River and downtown cultural destinations to neighborhood galleries, parks, and entertainment, there's always more to discover.
