Jacksonville, FL
For those who desire a combination of urban excitement and relaxing nature, Jacksonville, Florida is the perfect destination.
Home of the Professional Golf Association (PGA), the city boasts an impressive 50+ golf courses spread throughout the area. In addition, there is access to horseback riding, fishing, hiking, and a wide assortment of aquatic sports.
For those who enjoy games of chance, the greyhound-racing track will give you hours of pleasure--even if your pockets become a little lighter. Closer to downtown, there are a number of museums, gardens, and a world-class 61-acre zoo.
The nightlife is equally exciting. Jacksonville is a virtual magnet for nocturnal activity--with its abundance of restaurants, nightclubs, and waterfronts. It doesn't hurt that the weather is 78 year-round or that the city has access to over 20 miles of soft, white beaches.
With so much to do and see, few people ever complain about being bored in Jacksonville. |
