Your Complete Guide to Flying to Daytona Beach, Florida

Daytona Beach earned its ‘World’s Most Famous Beach’ nickname from its unique status as one of the few beaches in America where you can still drive your car directly onto the sand — a tradition dating back to the early 1900s when the hard-packed beach hosted land speed record attempts. That racing heritage evolved into Daytona International Speedway, the legendary 2.5-mile superspeedway that hosts the Daytona 500, NASCAR’s most prestigious race and the unofficial start of the racing season every February.

Beyond racing, Daytona Beach offers 23 miles of wide, sandy beaches, a classic boardwalk with amusement rides, deep-sea fishing, and an easygoing Florida beach town atmosphere that has drawn generations of spring break visitors and snowbirds alike. Book cheap flight deals to Daytona Beach (DAB) and discover the original American beach town.

The legendary 2.5-mile superspeedway, home to the Daytona 500 (NASCAR’s most prestigious race, February) and Daytona 200 motorcycle race — tours of the historic track are available year-round, even between race events.
