Smooth tides, historic bridges, and skyline views

---

Starting at Ponce Inlet, you can point your bow north and embark on a journey that traverses five distinct cities: Ponce Inlet, Port Orange, South Daytona, Daytona Beach, and Holly Hill, finally reaching the historic charm of Ormond Beach.

Along the way, the river transitions from the mangrove-lined wildness of the south to the sophisticated "Riverfront" skyline of downtown Daytona. It is a wide, deep-water channel that accommodates everything from jet skis to 60-foot yachts, making it the primary artery for local maritime life.

As you cruise through the Daytona Beach stretch, the river puts you front and center for some of the area's most iconic landmarks:

• City Island & Jackie Robinson Stadium: One of the highlights of the trip is passing "The Jack." Seeing the historic stadium from the water gives you a unique view of the grandstands where Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in 1946.
  
• Beach Street: Parallel to the stadium, you’ll glide past the palm-lined shops and restaurants of Beach Street. The view of the Halifax Harbor Marina and the historic downtown architecture provides a classic "Old Florida" backdrop to your voyage.

Navigating the Halifax means passing under a series of impressive bridges, each offering a different vantage point of the county.
