On Land & Water:

Daytona Beach's Elevated Meeting Group Experiences

Daytona Beach isn’t called The World’s Most Famous Beach for nothing. Here, meeting and conference groups can have fun both on and off our 23 miles of white sand beach. Whether you’re looking for top-notch oceanfront hotels or action-packed team-building activities and aquatic adventures, our sunny Florida destination has you covered.

Popstroke Golf

On Land Activities

If you’re looking for immersive onshore activities for your group that are unique to the host destination, Daytona Beach delivers.

There’s something for everyone—from sports enthusiasts to those who want to enjoy the destination’s 230 days of sunshine yearly. Unite your attendees through some friendly, healthy competition by adding matches of tennis at the Florida Tennis Center or other courts, pickleball at Pictona at Holly Hill, the third largest pickleball facility in the country, or a round of golf at one of nearly 20 courses, including the highly-acclaimed LGPA International, to the itinerary. The Tiger Woods-backed PopStroke Daytona Beach golf experience also adds a new layer of excitement for group activities with a pair of 18-hole mini-golf courses that feature fairways, roughs and bunkers, as well as an 11,166-square-foot full-service restaurant.

Or, treat them to an only-in-Daytona Beach opportunity at the renowned Daytona International Speedway. Here, they can feel the need for speed with offerings like the NASCAR Racing Experience, a thrilling three laps at top speeds, or Daytona International Speedway Track Tour, a behind-the-scenes look at what makes this motorsport facility the “World Center of Racing.”

If your group is filled with nature lovers or attendees who want an authentic wellness experience, there are several greenery spaces to explore, encounter wildlife and unwind amidst Florida’s natural beauty, including:

When the sun goes down, painting the sky with hues of orange and pink, there’s nothing that creates a relaxing and inspiring atmosphere that leaves attendees feeling more connected and inspired than Beach Campfire’s luxury experiences along our sandy shores. Choose from options like beach campfires, barbecues or picnics, with options for corporate events. 

 

Paddleboarding

On Water Experiences

Offshore, Daytona Beach’s waterways offer the ultimate playground for groups. With activities including paddleboarding, kayaking, surfing, parasailing and jet-skiing, attendees can dive into a variety of water activities here. These pastimes ensure that your group leaves with a deeper connection and a new perspective on our destination’s coastal delights.

But the on-water adventures don’t stop there. Your attendees can enjoy sailing excursions to take in Daytona Beach’s tropical surroundings. Plan a mini-getaway on one of Fun Cat Sailing’s cruises aboard The Arabella, a 10-ton catamaran that was built for James Taylor’s brother and has carried James Taylor himself, as well as Jimmy Buffet. Plan a daytime cruise to spot dolphins and go on an island swim, or opt for nighttime for a full-moon adventure.

If your group wants to reel in a unique experience, our sun-rich destination’s fishing charters offer options spanning the Atlanta Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway and other pristine inland waterways and bodies of water. The Daytona Beach area is home to 13 captains recognized among the world's best who are ready to take your attendees on an unforgettable fishing tour.
