ATLANTIC BEACH, FL. Tucked along Florida’s scenic First Coast, Atlantic Beach is a laid-back seaside community known for its pristine stretches of sand, charming small-town vibe, and rich history. Situated just east of Jacksonville, this coastal gem offers the perfect balance of relaxed beach living and easy access to big-city amenities. It’s one of the oldest beach communities in Northeast Florida, with roots dating back to the early 1900s, when it first gained popularity as a vacation destination connected by rail from Jacksonville.

Today, Atlantic Beach is prized for its uncrowded beaches, vibrant local dining scene, and tight-knit, welcoming community. Its two-mile-long oceanfront is lined with soft, white sands and rolling dunes, providing some of the area’s best opportunities for surfing, shelling, and sunrise walks. The city’s pedestrian-friendly layout and network of parks and green spaces—like the 350-acre Hanna Park, known for its freshwater lake, bike trails, and campground—make it a favorite among outdoor enthusiasts.

Atlantic Beach is also part of what locals affectionately call “The Beaches,” a cluster of barrier island communities that include Neptune Beach and Jacksonville Beach. However, Atlantic Beach stands out as the most residential and serene of the group, offering a more tranquil, small-town beach feel with no high-rise condos in sight. Its historic One Ocean Resort & Spa remains a landmark along the shoreline, a nod to the town’s enduring appeal as a coastal retreat.

JACKSONVILLE, FL. With over 840 square miles, Jacksonville is the largest city by landmass in the United States. In fact, Jacksonville has the largest urban park system in the nation and is four times the size of Manhattan! With over 80,000 acres of parks and 400 city parks, there is always something to do for any nature lover. If you would rather enjoy the water, Jacksonville is also home to 1,100 miles of shoreline and 22 miles of white-sandy beaches–you are never more than 60 miles away from the nearest body of water. Always sunny, Jacksonville inhabitants experience perfect, warm weather year-round (with a rare exception for the short, comfortable “winters”).

If you would rather get loud, shout some chants, and enjoy a game or two, Jacksonville is home to plenty of nationally recognized teams. The Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena hosts 16,000 seats for the beloved NFL Team, the Jacksonville Jaguars. You can also take the family to watch the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp play baseball or even watch a hockey game, rugby match, or basketball tournament. With plenty of sports to watch, it is only a question of when and where.
