Daytona Beach is a city that has made itself famous for multiple reasons. Young college students think of it as one of the spring break meccas of the United States. NASCAR fans think of the Daytona International Speedway as the pinnacle of all racetracks, and many of the races that take place in the city are followed by legions of fans worldwide.With four post-secondary institutes in Daytona, the spring-breakers aren't the only students in town. The students of Bethune-Cookman University, Daytona State College, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and the Daytona Beach Campus of the University of Central Florida actually make up a significant portion of the city's population throughout the school year.

Daytona Beach has a very strong reputation as a party town. Remember that a place near the beach or the clubs might seem like a great idea during the year, but once spring break descends on town these places can get pretty wild, not to mention loud. If that's not your scene, you might want to look for a place a little further away from the action.
There is a public bus service in Daytona Beach, but as one of the centers of NASCAR racing it should come as no surprise that car culture is everywhere. The streets are laid out well, clearly designated, and capable of handling heavy traffic loads except for in a few bottlenecks in the center of the city. You'll find that having a car is by far the most convenient means of transportation here.
In Daytona Beach, the entertainment comes down to two major categories: motorsports and the beach. Whether you love cars, NASCAR, or motorcycles, you can find a race or a rally to thrill you. The beach is beautiful year round, and during spring break it will be filled with some of the wildest and most beautiful people in the country as college students from coast to coast take their vacation.
