Daytona Beach Holidays

from £ 1068 pp

Holidays to Daytona Beach are family favourites, what with beaches and boardwalks, a rip-roaring speedway and up-close nature.

All-American beach scene

You might know Florida's Daytona Beach for its kilometres of coast, or for the all-American motorsport stadium. Beach bums and racing nuts alike can catch glimpses of bald eagles and slow-moving manatees in the river that divides the sand from the city.

Start your engines

Attention, thrill-seekers – grab a beer and a corn dog and get over to the Daytona International Speedway. Crowds get especially crazy around the annual Daytona 500. Populations surge during popular biker events, too, like Bike Week and Biketoberfest.

Sweet attractions

When you've boosted your brain at the Museum of Arts and Sciences, reward yourself with a visit to the Angell & Phelps Chocolate Factory. Close to the marina, you'll find all manner of goodies dunked in chocolate – even bacon.

Floridian beaches

Daytona Beach's home to swathes of – well, beaches. Sandy stretches come large and small, with backdrops of restaurants and hotels. The shoreline here's a behemoth beast, stretching for almost 40 kilometres. For something a bit more relaxed, try chilled-out Ponce Inlet.
The big beach

Daytona Beach’s popularity means that it gets busy. If you don't mind the crowds, you'll find activities a-plenty like paddleboard tours and fishing. Swing by the pier to munch on scrummy seafood in between swims.
The secret beach

Go south of Daytona to Ponce Inlet if you want some elbow room on the sand. Here, you’ll find clusters of dunes free from the shadow of hotels. If you've got kids in tow, take them along to the marine science centre in Lighthouse Point Park.

Bargain Buys

To bag a bargain, pop down to the Daytona Flea and Farmer's Market near the speedway. Hundreds of stalls sell everything from fresh produce to handmade ceramics. This market's been operating every weekend for 35 years, so it's basically a Florida institution.
Mid-Range Buys

If you're looking for American high street brands, visit Volusia Mall. Here you'll find Abercrombie & Fitch, JCPenney and one-stop-shop Macy's. After a long day of retail therapy, treat yourself to a stack of buttermilk pancakes at the IHOP.
Designer Buys

The riverfront shops by Daytona Beach are the main spots to splash some cash. Pick up designer shoes, some glitzy jewellery and upmarket clothes items. This place's also home to a swanky cigar club and an antique mall.

Laid-back evenings

A stone's throw from the pier at Daytona Beach is the Ocean Deck Beach Club. Not only does it serve up some lip-smacking cocktails, but there are also sea views to drink in. Couple that with chilled-out live music, and you've got an easy evening on lock.
Lively evenings

For a livelier choice, check out Seabreeze Boulevard. It's bumping with upbeat clubs and bars where you can dance the night away. For the biggest party, try out Razzles – it's the top-rated club in the city.

Seafood at Crabby Joe's

The guy on the sign may be a grump, but there are seriously delicious fish sarnies and crab legs inside – served with a panoramic view of Daytona pier.
Island eats at Caribbean Jack's

Tuck into bites that could only be from Florida – like breaded gator tail – all knocked back with a swig of rum punch.
Donnie's Donuts

Death by chocolate, or maybe maple and bacon. You'll find these mouthwatering flavours and more at the much-loved donuterie.
Classic Italian at Don Vito's

For a taste of traditional Italian food in massive Florida portions, order up a plate of spaghetti and meatballs or chicken parmesan.
Taffy at Zeno's

Watch brightly coloured taffy being pulled into different shapes and sizes right in front of you – it'll be hard to choose between classic flavours and more creative options like key lime pie.
