Jacksonville vs Los Angeles: Which Beach Town Is For You?
As winter chills creep closer, it is now the perfect time to start dreaming of your beach weekend escape. You can almost feel the warm breeze in your hair, hear the crash of the waves off the shore and taste the frosty piña colada in your hand (even in January). But which beach city is right for you? Should you travel west to Los Angeles, CA, the movie-making capital of the world or should you journey down south to the orange-scented city of Jacksonville, FL?
The Beaches
Both Florida and California are known for their beautiful beaches and warm temperatures all year round. Jacksonville boasts four distinct beaches within a 22-mile radius including ideals spots for surfers and sun soakers alike. Los Angeles, on the other hand, is well known for miles of picturesque coastline and famous locales like Malibu, Santa Monica Pier, and Venice Beach.
