Daytona Beach
|
|
| Located in Volusia County,
Daytona Beach is a wide beach of
smooth, compacted sand that has come
to claim the nickname of “World’s
Most Famous Beach.” Popular among
both spring breakers and families
alike, Daytona Beach is a year-round
resort area. The city is
historically known for its
motorsports, with both Daytona
International Speedway and the old
Daytona Beach Road Course having
hosted races for over a century. The
city is also the headquarters for
NASCAR. Daytona could accurately be
called a seasonal town, with large
groups of out-of-towners descending
upon the city for various events,
most notably Speedweeks in early
February when over 200,000 NASCAR
fans come to attend the
season-opening Daytona 500. Other
events include the NASCAR Pepsi 400
race in July (now Coke Zero 400),
Bike Week in March, Biketoberfest in
October and Black College Reunion in
March and April. The city and its
beaches are lined with hotels,
condos and houses that attract over
8,000,000 tourists each year.
Bethune-Cookman University, Daytona
Beach Community College,
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University
and University of Central
Florida-Daytona Beach Campus call
Daytona Beach home. With plenty of
sun, shopping and beautiful beaches
Daytona Beach is and will continue
to be a popular tourist destination
in Florida. |
