When visiting the beaches along Florida's coastline, you are never far from an adventure. Jump in the car, or rent a bike and explore these great diversions and discover a Florida you never knew existed. Although speeding race cars and soaring space shuttles take the spotlight among Central East Florida attractions, travelers will be pleasantly surprised to find a wealth of historical gems quietly awaiting discovery, just slightly off the beaten path. Not far from the roar of race car engines, Daytona Beach s downtown historic district features a variety of museums, churches, galleries and other cultural finds, nestled along the banks of the scenic Halifax River. Housed in an old bank building on Beach Street, the Halifax Historical Museum features Indian and Spanish artifacts found on nearby plantations, memorabilia from the early days of beach automobile racing and newspapers dating back to 1883. Central East Florida visitors will also find pleasant historic districts in the midst of the Space Coast s high-technology, space-age attractions. This book offers information on East Central Florida and its most notable places.
