I was talking to my wife about possibly switching coasts in Florida.
My big argument is east coast surf fishing, which we really enjoy.
That place could be another.

Jax is featureless. Miles and miles of mobile home parks,
subdivisions, military bases and the bars that accompany them.

They do have s nice waterfront park where you can go sit and eat your
bagged lunch, if you must be in downtown Jacksonville. Tourists might
visit the brewery and then move on down to St. Augustine to do some
dining, sight seeing, and shopping.


Jacksonville has some of the prettiest, uncrowded ocean beaches in
Florida, from practically the Georgia border down past St. Augustine.

When we lived in the area, I rarely went downtown, except to eat at a
very good Japanese restaurant, since closed, and a Cuban restaurant.
