An amazing animal sanctuary awaits you at the Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens. The animal preserve sits on 110 acres at the mouth of the Trout River and is home to exhibits and attractions that display more than 2,000 exotic animals and 1,500 plant species.
Let Captain Dave take you to the best fishing spots around the waters of Jacksonville. Captain Dave's Sportfishing Charters will take you to the saltwaters of the St. Johns River at the Mayport Jetties, the Jacksonville Beach and Amelia Island. With over 20 years of guide experience, Captain Dave is sure to lead you to your big catch.
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.
