Touching the displays is a requirement at the Hands On Children's Museum, which resembles a castle on the outside, and a scientific-discovery fun house on the inside! More than 15 major exhibits and attractions like "Little Vets," "Kids Mini Bank," and "Winn Dixie Lil' Grocery" will keep the kids enthralled for hours.
What could be better than a cool drink in hand, strolling the beachfront and listening to the sweet pings of steel drums? Head over to the Jacksonville Caribbean Carnival each September and you'll feel transported to the islands. Enjoy great music, food, crafts and entertainment at this festival.
Ready for an adventure? Then head over to Adventure Landing, where you'll have all the fun of a huge theme park, in a smaller package that you can experience in a day. This mini theme park attraction includes a water park, game room, go carts and putt putt golf course. Best of all, it's located right off Beach Blvd.
