An aquatic way of life thrives here, as Jacksonville is surrounded by water: the Atlantic Ocean, the St. Johns River and the Intracoastal Waterway. When residents tire of watersports like fishing and boating, there are plenty of land-based activities to keep them occupied. An afternoon at an NFL Jacksonville Jaguars football game or a tour of the Cummer Museum of Art and Gardens might be in the upcoming weekend's plans. The nation's oldest city, St. Augustine offers eclectic restaurants, beautiful beaches and a treasure trove of history to discover.

Experience all that Jacksonville has to offer! Plan a trip to the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens. Spend a day at one of many festivals held at the beaches. Purchase tickets to the Symphony. See your favorite musician perform at Veterans Memorial Arena or enjoy a Jacksonville Suns baseball game. Attend one of the many events held at Jacksonville Landing or pay a visit to the Museum of Contemporary Art. Browse for something to read at a branch of the Jacksonville Public Library, which consists of a 300,000-square-foot main library and 20 regional, community and neighborhood branches.
