Jacksonville Beach Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Jacksonville Beach is a laid-back beach town approximately twenty miles east of Jacksonville. It is also home to the liveliest of the long line of Jacksonville beaches. People come here for swimming, beach volleyball, bicycling, in-line skating, shopping and nightlife. Nearby Atlantic Beach is the favored surfing area of the Jacksonville beaches. You can rent a beach cruiser in Jacksonville Beach, try your hand at fly-fishing, or go on a deep-sea fishing excursion. Horseback riding among the sand dunes is allowed on some parts of the beach, and the winding St. Johns River offers canoeing and kayaking adventures. Jacksonville Beach is also home to the “Adventure Landing/Shipwreck Island,” which offers family entertainment such as two mini-golf courses, bumper boats, go-karts, a video arcade and batting cages. A waterpark and wave pool is open from March through October. You’ll find reasonable lodging and restaurants in Jacksonville Beach, including one restaurant that is located in a two-story log cabin built in 1934 that features down-home Southern style cooking. For even more shopping and fine dining, visit nearby Jacksonville, which has lots of boutiques, antique stores, art galleries and restaurants.

Jacksonville Beach Weather & Climate

Northeastern Florida along the Atlantic coast near the Georgia border, enjoys a year round mild climate. Hot, humid summers and warm, mild winters attract lots of visitors to this area in all four seasons of the year. Florida, as a whole, has three basic climatic zones that are classified as "hot-humid." Northern Florida, in the Jacksonville-Amelia Island region is somewhat cooler than the southern part of the state due to its latitude, prevailing northeasterly winds and the cooling breezes from the Atlantic Ocean. It can rain anytime of the year in northeastern Florida, but the official "rainy" season runs from May through October, with September being the wettest month of the year. Winters are sunny and mild, with cool evenings.
