Daytona Beach and Ormond Beach became the epicenter for racing fanatics who used the hard packed beaches to test new racing machines and pushed them to break several land speed records during the 1900s. Henry Flagler continued his expansion of hotels and land acquisitions down the Atlantic coast from St. Augustine into the area today known as Daytona. One hotel he purchased was the Ormond Hotel located directly a remote section of the beach in the small town of Ormond just north of Daytona. By 1905 the small hotel had expanded to 400 rooms. As usual, Flagler would build first and then figure out how to get tourists to his resorts.
One group of visitors to the Ormond Hotel, were the new automobile pioneers of that era. With the encouragement of Henry Flagler; Ransom Olds, Henry Ford, Lewis Chevrolet and others gathered at the garage built at the the Ormond Hotel. Racing soon became a gentleman's sport and Daytona seemed to draw those intent on becoming the next record holder. The first speed record was set by William Vanderbuilt and his Mercedes in 1904 when he reached 92.04 miles per hour. This was where they tested their new machines on the long flat beaches of Daytona. Ormond and Daytona have attracked racing enthusiasts ever since.
At times the racetrack would extended up and down the beach from Ponces Inlet to several miles beyond the pier at Daytona. Records were broken by race cars and motorcycles alike. The actual race track could extend 10 miles or more just so the cars would be able to reach speeds of 300 miles an hour and then stop. It was an era when anything seemed possible and there were many unexplored opportunites to be grasped.
Daytona Beach no longer allows the racing along the beach. Ormond Beach has banned driving along it's beaches. However, the vibrancy and the intensity are still very much a part of their culture. However, the beach is still a hub of activity and Daytona vacation rentals extend for miles up and down the beaches.
The beaches seem to have every new modification of a beach vehicle available. Dune buggies, convertibles, SUVs, 3 wheel pedal bikes, small racing bikes for children constantly parade up and down the beach with their radios blaring. In the background are highrise hotels and condos with swimming pools perched on the sand dunes overlooking the ocean, the perfect Daytona Beach vacation rental where their customers enjoy the view of the motor parade and the breaking of the waves along the shoreline while they sit and enjoy a drink.
Directly to the west of Daytona Beach on the west side of the narrow strip of land that is considered Daytona Beach is the Halifax River and the Intracoastal Waterway. This is the historic section of Downtown Daytona. Where palm trees line the streets with brick sidewalks. Many of the art deco buildings are painted with murals depicting various scenes of Daytona. A stroll through the streets allows for stops at the various restaurants and makes an interesting side excusion.
The IntraCoastal and the Halifax River have numerous restaurants positioned inside marinas that jetty out from the land. The views of the numerous boats and yachts that dock along side of these restaurants make for an enjoyable and relaxing afternoon. Caribbean Jack's is one such restaurant. Recently opened during the last year it boasts a beautiful marina with some of the most beautiful boats and live music playing on the weekends. The bar opens directly onto the IntraCoastal with a jacuzzi and swimming pool available. It is a relaxed atmosphere where the sound of music floats across the breezes off the water.
