Why Travel to Jacksonville for Vacation
Dubbed the “River City by the Sea,” Jacksonville, Florida sits at the intersection of the St. John’s River and Atlantic Ocean. In terms of landmass, Jacksonville is the largest metropolitan area in the continental United States – with over 80,000 acres, 400 city parks, seven state parks and two national parks. Fortunately, the city’s urban landscape does not overshadow the natural beauty of its beaches, waterways and recreational areas. Even though Jacksonville is currently undergoing an economic boom, its cost of living is still well below the national average. Consequently, Jacksonville has quickly become an affordable yet luxurious destination for those looking to get away.
