Fort Matanzas National Monument

Excerpt from the above site, quote . . . “Coastal Florida was a major field of conflict as European nations fought for control in the New World. As part of this struggle, Fort Matanzas guarded St. Augustine’s southern river approach. The colonial wars are over, but the monument is still protecting—not just the historic fort, but also the wild barrier island and the plants and animals who survive there amidst a sea of modern development.” unquote.

Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park

Excerpt from the above site, quote . . . “The park has picnic facilities and an interpretive center that tells the plantation's history. A boat ramp provides access for canoes and small powerboats to scenic Bulow Creek, a designated state canoe trail. Anglers can fish from the dock or a boat. . . . “ unquote.

Little Talbot Island State Park

Excerpt from the above site, quote . . . “Little Talbot has one of Florida's most pristine beaches with over 5 miles of shoreline along the Atlantic Ocean.

Whether it's exploring the vast beach or hiking through barrier island natural communities, this is one of the best times . . . .” unquote.

Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Historic State Park

Excerpt from the above site, quote . . . “Visitors to this Florida homestead can walk back in time to 1930s farm life. Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings lived and worked in the tiny community of Cross Creek. Her cracker style home and farm, where she lived for 25 years and wrote her Pulitzer prize-winning novel The Yearling, has been restored and is preserved as it was when she lived here. Rawlings´ farmyard, grove, and nature trails are open 9:00 a.m.to 5:00 p.m. daily, throughout the year. Visitors may tour the house with a ranger in period costume. . . . .” unquote.

Washington Oaks Gardens State Park

Excerpt from the above site, quote . . . “The gardens make remarkable use of native and exotic species, from azaleas and camellias to the exquisite bird of paradise, sheltered within a picturesque oak hammock. Visitors can picnic and fish from either the beach or the seawall along the Matanzas River. A number of short trails provide opportunities for hiking and bicycling. Visitors can learn about the park's natural and cultural resources . . . . “ unquote.

Daytona International Speedway

Castillo de San Marcos

Excerpt from the above site, quote . . . “A bastion of the largest empire ever created, the Castillo was built to protect and defend Spain’s claims in the New World. Though caught in the whirlwinds of colonial warfare and intrigue, it was never defeated in battle. Its scarred walls still stand witness to over 330 years of history and culture. . . . “ unquote
