Northeast Florida offers some of the states most beautiful beaches, both
private and public. What a relaxing feeling to spend a day at the beach
sifting your toes through the white sand, reading a good book, riding the surf,
hunting for shark's teeth and seashells or taking a stroll along the water's
edge.
The Jacksonville area has a very mild climate, with some
variation between summer and winter temperatures. December, January
and February are the coolest months with temperatures averaging 55-60 degrees and freezing temperatures
occuring about twelve times a year. June, July and August are the warmest months,
with 80 degree averages. Temperatures exceed 95 degrees only about ten times a
summer.
The climate is considered semi-tropical, and many types
of vegetation are found, from palm trees to evergreens. Lofty pines and majestic oaks shade the city, and something
is flowering at almost anytime of the year. Because of favorable weather, Jacksonville's lifestyle
centers around outdoor activities. Sports such as golf and tennis are played year-round, the
fish are always biting, and back-yard barbecue grills may be fired-up in any
season.
