So I'm vacationing at Daytona Beach. I really like it here. It has a fifties feel. Most places are still American and haven't been destroyed by foreigners. The biggest problem is that a cat 4 hurricane came through and wrecked a lot of stuff.
>>2580964They have a lot of cute diners. This one is old school Betty Boop.
>>2580965They have a cute Pirate golfing place and lots of cozy smaller family hotels
>>2580964You can rent electric bikes or take a river cruise
Yo OP if you're still there go up to St. Augustine for the Christmas lights/festivities
>>2580964Yeah... "fifties feel."Like the place has been fermenting in its own juices since the 1950s. So rotten and falling apart, mostly.I've been visiting Florida for the last 60 years, kid. I'm well aware that it's a cesspool.
>>2581364Ok thanks! :)
>>2580964best FL beaches are on the Gulf Coast
Florida beaches are cool but have you ever been swimming in one of Florida’s freshwater springs?
>>2581364Good suggestion. St. Augustine is a great place to take a day trip from Daytona. Never been there for Christmas though. Also, OP, if you want something a bit different in Daytona, pop by Dunlawton Sugar Mill Gardens.>>2581860I've been to Blue Spring, which is nice. Got to pet a manatee there when I was a kid, though you're obviously not supposed to do that.
St. Augustine is a tourist trap, go to Melbourne and cocoa beach, qt town and hidden surf gem
>>2584880Don't listen to this dude lol. Pretty obvious he's a tourist. Melbourne dude? Seriously? You'd know it's also known as Melboring if you actually lived here more than a few years.
>>2584893Melboring? Why? Not enough tourists and diversity for you?
>>2584954That post could have mentioned literally any other town on the A1A and I would have let it slide. Melbourne, fucking lol. You know what the best thing about Melbourne is? Its proximity to places with things to do.
>>2584959A bunch or tourist traps and high crime isn't my idea of fun, you can keep your "places with things to do"
>>2584962You also don't know what "tourist trap" means if you're the same retard calling St. Augustine a tourist trap. I promise you there's more fun to be had than in Florida than the shitty bar your frequent in Melbourne.
>>2584963Because it is a tourist trap. Like what? What's more fun than the beach by Melbourne?
>>2585004Melbourne doesn't have a beach
>>2585007Cocoa beach
>>2581800You're joking, right?
>>2586534Do you prefer Daytona Beach where Bubba can drive his truck on the shoreline or the joggers doing nuffin on South Beach?Personally, I can not stand the warmer, less crowded waters found near Naples and Lido Key, infested with disgusting mayo monkeys.
