Sunrise at Daytona Beach, Florida!

It is a magical experience to watch the sun rise above the horizon. Waiting in anticipation for several minutes. It rises so quickly to make its grand entrance of the day. It is an incredible sight.

Daytona Beach is a year-round family-friendly resort area, but could also accurately be called a seasonal town, with large groups of out-of-towners descending upon the city for various events, most notably Speedweeks in early February when over 200,000 NASCAR fans come to attend the season-opening Daytona 500. Other events include the NASCAR Coke Zero 400 race in July, Bike Week in early March, Biketoberfest in late October, and the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona endurance race in January.

Canada's Best Beaches - Skaha (Penticton)!

Beautiful long and broad beach fronting shallow warm water. Ample FREE parking at many locations for easy access to the beach and facilities. Marina with boat and water sports rentals, motels and camping make this a favourite beach for many who return yearly. We found Motels right on the beach with rates $135 - 155 per night. Lots of grass areas for picnicking, tennis courts all make this a great beach. The only negative is if the wind comes up the water can become choppy very quickly, on the positive it's great for windsurfing and kiting. Penticton is a more youth and family oriented resort destination then Kelowna.
