Once we set off on our adventure we will do a circle around an Island, where we will go under 8 bridges, through the Yatch Club along side all of the Yatchs, we will go through small winding canals always close to shore and in relatively shallow water. We will go through multiple spots that have a high concentration of Manatees and the Dolphin are everywhere! Your SUP tour is guaranteed to be amazing with great memories to share when you go home.

Kids and Adults really love this place! My husband and Daughter did the 1 hour jump. They had a blast! I took lots of pictures! Pricing was what you'd expect in a tourist town. You have to buy their socks. They had a very fun time, and I'm sure we'll go back when we are in the area!

Gary made our Daytona Speedway All Access Tour the absolute best! He was friendly, funny and very informative! He made my 8 year olds day by offering special treatment for his volunteer help! My Grandpa is a huge NASCAR fan and attends the race yearly and still enjoyed the tour and being able to show us his favorite stuff about the track. Gary made connections with everyone, especially us Iowans.. loved his personality and tour! Highly recommend Gary as your guide! Thank you for such a great experience!

We had an absolute blast!!!! For the young, the old and in between!!! This was the best thing we have done since moving here. It would be a great during a vacation, too. We took our 13 yr old great nephew, who is with us for a month..to see the game! Wow! Wow! Wow. Not only is it on an island in a cool location,(easy in and easy out) the ppl that work there love what they do!!! They go out of their way to make sure everyone has a great time. I cannot imagine a better night for any age!!! It is worth 1000 times the price! The team is amazing! We loved the mascot, camera guys (yes you might be up on the big screen), the announcers, the ???? tunes played, the bleacher staff and even the guys at the gate...EVERYONE... was just so hospitable. The entire experience is something you will talk about for years to come. I know it is minor league, but the players, the game and the staff make it the majors. Oh and a huge heads up...check their calendars...it looks like there is always something planned. Coming up is the bud light game where parents can get a beer for a buck. I would ensure you go directly to the Tortugas site to buy tickets. They are priced the best there. Trust me, and I am as picky as they come. This, by far, is a guaranteed night of fun, excitement and a huge memory making treasure! Thank you to the Daytona Tortugas for such an amazing time! We will see you again very soon!

Our condo is less than two miles north of ISB and well within walking distance of the shops on the boardwalk. Except a really high tide, the beach is wide with well marked drive lanes.

We went to view 'Fireflies' and thoroughly enjoyed the production. The stage setting and acting were marvelous. This theater apparently presents a wide variety of productions. We are from out of town, but we'll try to attend more productions in the future.
