(2,952 posts).....Daytona Beach!!! The worlds most famous beach! Two NASCAR races, two major motorcycle rallies, a huge national hot rod week, and yes we still have spring break....not to mention year round fishing, beaches you can drive on(wildlife...particularly turtles...friendly btw), wonderful state parks, good night life and food(the Greek festivals and food festivals here are cant miss)...all minus I4 and Disney traffic and the 90 to nothing Miami traffic....and if you really want to go to Orlando to the attractions(as we central floridians call them) or head up to the worlds oldest city, St. Augustine they are both less than an hour away, as is the space center to the south.....hell, we even have nude beaches 30 minutes away!
Orlando if I have to choose though...someone else mentioned how clean Orlando is kept. Even down by the orange bowl and OBT area. Traffic is Orlando's biggest problem....I4 can be treacherous with all the road work...I'll go 40 miles out of my way and take I95 to the beeline tollway before I go to OIA via I4...
Admittedly I try to avoid Orlando as much as possible...I rarely drive past lake Mary or Deltona...
