Car Hire Daytona Beach Airport - Mini guide to Daytona Beach Airport

DBIA is the 'Gateway to Central Florida', the International Airport at Daytona Beach acts to interconnect the Daytona International Speedway and the globally recognised Atlantic Ocean beaches with other famous tourist attractions in Orlando like the St. Augustine and the Kennedy Space Centre.

Daytona Beach is the archetypal Florida beach town with many motels, arcades and T-shirt shops and as to be expected the 20 mile long beach of light brown sand takes pride of place compelling everyone to dress down and strip off.

Daytona has always been a popular destination; in the past it was a favourite Spring Break resort for college students but their underage drink fuelled activities have been discouraged allowing Daytona Beach to focus on the festivals of which it is justly proud like the Daytona 500, the Bike Week of early March and the newer Biketoberfest.

Historically, the 20 miles of sand have been the foundation of the modern motor industry. Louis Chevrolet, Ransom Olds and Henry Ford all frequented Daytona in the early 1900s to test and race experimental vehicles. The firm sands have been the place of many land speed records as Malcolm Campbell set the record five times, lastly in 1935, setting a speed of 276 mph.

It was the inability of the sand to take the higher speeds which led to the construction of a steel and concrete arena ; the Daytona Speedway was born at the aptly named International Speedway Boulevard, three miles west of downtown Daytona, so whatever your taste, sun ,sand, or speed you can gay all three in Daytona Beach, Florida.
