Things to Do in Jacksonville

Plan your days in Jacksonville, your way

Start with the postcard: the Friendship Fountain and the Riverwalk, bridges strung with light as the sun drops.

Riverside's Five Points gives you the neighborhood wander, bungalow streets, coffee, and a record shop or two.

Lunch on Mayport shrimp at a dockside shack, because a city should taste like where it is.

The Cummer Museum splits the difference between art and gardens, and the river terrace asks nothing of you.

An afternoon at Jacksonville Beach is non-negotiable: pier, sand, and a cold drink within a block of the water.

The water taxi across the St. Johns is a small pleasure that costs almost nothing.

Dinner in San Marco Square, where the choice between bistro and oyster bar is the day's hardest decision.

If the timing works, the Saturday market under the bridge is the city at its most itself.

Keep one morning unplanned; the Timucuan marshes reward a spontaneous kayak.

You will leave with a fair picture of the place, and a reason to come back.
