5 reasons why Flagler Beach is hands-down the best family destination in Florida.

1. The Beaches        

Flagler’s beaches are uncrowded, and without high rises on the beach, your family will truly feel that Old Florida laid-back feeling. Flagler Beach is also one of the very few places left in the state where bringing along Fido is encouraged. 

2. The Cost

Flagler Beach is one of the few places in Florida where beachgoers can pull up and park without paying a meter. Accommodations, food prices and local events are reasonable, too, even during busy seasons.

3. The Water Activities

You won’t have to go far for a nice selection of water equipment rentals for all ages. The younger ones will be eager to try boogie boarding or body surfing while the older kids, or even mom and dad, may want to give surfing a try.

4. The Temperature

With so many water activities to choose from, the year-round weather in Palm Coast and the Flagler Beaches isn’t too hot and isn’t too cold. It sits at an average between 61 and 83 degrees.

5. The Educational Opportunities

Imagine witnessing a natural miracle as baby sea turtles hatch and scramble to the ocean from their nests. In addition to sea turtle nesting, Flagler is a destination where you can see the whale migration.
