Because of the sheer physical size of Jacksonville, Florida you should rent a car once you arrive. One of the first things to do in Jacksonville is visit the Jacksonville Museum of Science and History. Nicknamed the “MOSH”, this museum strives to increase the knowledge of the natural environment and history of Jacksonville and Northeast Florida through live animal exhibits, hands-on interactive displays, and historical artifacts. A trip to Jacksonville would not be complete without a cruise down St. Johns River. Come aboard the Jacksonville Princess for a sunset dinner or Sunday brunch cruise.
Jacksonville Landing and Metropolitan Park are just a couple sights around town that you won’t want to miss. Jacksonville Landing boasts some of the grandest shopping, dining, and entertainment in the city. Metropolitan Park, on the hand, is a mecca for civic events and festivals. Hosting the famous Jacksonville Jazz Festival each fall and Independence Day fireworks, this park by the river is fun for the whole family.
