Free Daytona Beach Area Visitors Guides are available here . I've heard from some people that you can drive on the beach and others say you can't. There are two traffic-free zones located at the north and south ends. The Daytona Beach area is surrounded by several beautiful waterways including the Halifax and St. Johns Rivers. There are several adventure tour operators in the area who will gladly guide you through our natural wonders.
Artificial reefs are another way to explore the area's waterways.
Fresh and saltwater diving and snorkeling opportunities are plentiful in the Daytona Beach area and throughout Volusia County. The Volusia County Port Authority Artificial Reef Program includes a total of 28 artificial reefs that were constructed with the remains of ships, barges, airplanes, and local demolished bridges. The area's freshwater springs feature spectacular underwater sites such as manatees and limestone-walled caves. Speedweeks begins the first weekend in February with the running of the Rolex 24 At Daytona. The following weekend features Bud Pole Qualifying for the Daytona 500, the Bud Shootout, and the ARCA 200.
