Regret to say that apart from the speedway I have always thought that Daytona is a bit of a dump. Apart from walking up and down the beach we have never found anything to do.

the only other thing you can do is drive down the beach. They hire quad bikes and petrol golf buggies, quite fun though

I was going to say that there was a good chance of getting run down whilst you were walking up and down the beach but didn't want to put them off

We are going to Datona for the Biketoberfest in October. We are great fans of Orange County Choppers and west coast choppers so hoping to meet both crews there!

I liked Daytona, stayed on the beach for a bit then went shopping (naturally! ) on the way back.
Not much there really.

Stayed 4 days there at the Best Western (Tiki) hotel... very nice... beautiful weather... great seas... and the walks along the beach to the pier were fantastic... they have a nice little watering hole on the pier that knocks out pitchers of beer than come in very useful after that walk!

I would go there again...

Personally I don't think there is very much there. We go every couple of years for some unknown reason and then get back to Kissimmee a couple of hours later wondering why we bothered.
One of the good things about it is that they have cleaned up all the strip clubs and topless bars that used to be an 'attraction' some years ago.
