Traveler advice
Getting around
There’s public transportation.. and then there’s Uber
Public transportation is just a few steps away but your fastest and easiest mode of transportation will be an Uber/Lyft if you didn’t bring a personal vehicle.
Ways to save
To all downtown events- save time and money- just Uber/Lyft
Parking will cost at minimum 15-20$ and that still means you’ll have to deal with terrible traffic. I’ve seen often that using Uber/Lyft to the event (~7-12$) and after it’s over, walk a few blocks and request one back to the house (12-15$)- well worth the time saved.
Don't miss
Dead Tree Beach- Best hidden treasure of Jacksonville
Google it- if you can go, don’t miss it! It’s a good 30 minute drive, but it’s worth it- Best time to visit is low tide!
