    Every time we come to Ponce Inlet we always go to her daddy's. Great ice cream and great atmosphere. They just opened the new indoor lobby area which also doubles as an office for their service camp school. Awesome place lots of interesting surfboards and surfing paraphernalia.

    Seagull food ice cream has many delicious flavors all working together in a cool treat.

    This is a fun place to visit when we are in Ponce Inlet. The ice cream is good, but I think it's the music and atmosphere I enjoy the most. It's in a courtyard with many benches and picnic tables. As you'd expect, the decor is colorful and beach themed. The service is cheerful and casual. We had to wait to order for just a minute while the server ran next door for change. We often are in the area in the winter, and they haven't been open. Now, in April, they are open on weekends. I'd strongly recommend checking whether they are open before stopping by.

    Mediocre Ice Cream. Soft serve was melting as she handed me the cone. They are using poor quality ingredients. Not worth a return trip.

    The atmosphere is really great, plenty of seating, bike racks, and activities for kids like hula hoops and sidewalk chalk.

    I want to give a huge thank you and shout out to Pure Life Surf School!!…read more What an absolute amazing group of men and women who clearly love what they do! We signed up my niece for their one week summer camp this past week and right out of the gate they had us all hooked. My niece, who is shy, wasn't forced into doing any kind of forced introductions to others, instead, campers are separated into age and ability groups where everyone was very much on the same playing field keeping things anxiety free and natural. She and the other newbies were constantly reinforced by the amazing instructors as well as the more advanced kids. Just so much positive energy pouring out of this Pure Life camp! My niece is now hooked on surfing and it's ALL she talks about now. She even made all new friends with whom she was excited to see every morning. We definitely are going to find a way to sign her up again this summer. So for anyone looking for something new and fun to enroll their kiddos in for the summer please look into Pure Life Surf School. All their details are on their website as far as pricing for classes or private lessons. LJ the owner and active instructor is amazing and he really built a solid team of people who you can trust to care for and teach your little ones! Extra Extra shout out to Hayden who was our groups instructor, her patience playfulness and passion to pass on the love of the sport to these little ones is just out of this world. Couldn't have had a better experience!!

    My partner and I booked a beginner lesson with Pure Life Surf School in Florida after seeing so…read moremany great reviews, but our experience didn't quite live up to the hype. The beach location was beautiful and the instructor showed up on time with good equipment. e spent more time practicing on the sand than actually surfing, and once in the water, the instructor gave minimal feedback before leaving us mostly on our own. The "guaranteed to stand up" promise in their email turned out to be more of a marketing line than reality, and the session ended awkwardly with a long wait for the boards to be collected and no clear wrap-up. Overall, it wasn't terrible, but for the price and reputation, I expected a more organized and engaging lesson.

    Interesting history here. I can't go somewhere without checking out some of the sites. There's not…read morea ton of things to do in Daytona but when I saw 'Lighthouse Park', I knew we had to go. One of the workers in the gift shop gave us an intro when we bought our tickets. You should definitely start across the street at the hotel/museum. That hotel/house has history all its own aside from the lighthouse. The family that lived there and ran it. I loved the house and it seems to have stayed in great condition after hundreds of years. In the hotel/house, you start with a short movie in the side room and then you can tour the house at your leisure. The house has multiple items displayed from over the years. There are also boards with a bit of history as you make your way through. Outside of the hotel/house is a relaxing area by the water. You could relax there or it'd be a perfect place for a wedding or special occasion. Once finished there, you can make your way back across the street to the lighthouse. On the lighthouse side, there are other buildings where people that took care of the place stayed. There's also a small storybook trail. It's not long at all but it has these storyboards around it talking about this cat named Nelly. That's all fun and stuff... but at the end of the trail, you see a little cat graveyard with cats that have been on the property over the years. When we walked up and I noticed Nelly was already buried! THE HORRRRRRRRRRORRRRRRR! On to the lighthouse; You can climb up to the top of the lighthouse. I think there is a sign that mentions 222 steps or something. It gets very steep near the top. Great exercise and it made me forget all about the cat graveyard. It's a cool place. I was intrigued by the Cincinnati Reds connection too. Other notables: Across the street is a restaurant and ice cream place. I don't think those two spots are related to the lighthouse itself but it's nice that they're there. We tried out both and they weren't bad at all. We didn't venture further down the road but we were told more restaurants/locations are further down. If you like history or inlets or just lighthouses, check out this place if you're in the area.

    I visited the beach here one afternoon. It costs $10 to get in, so come prepared for that…read more There are bathroom facilities and outdoor showers, which I appreciate, though the bathrooms are pretty gnarly, so I'd avoid those if you can help it. The beach itself was pretty small, and it was crowded. The water wasn't too rough. There were a lot of kids and families, so clearly a good place for the kids to swim. My favorite part were all of the dogs. There were so many puppers on the beach! Overall, I'll give it a 3. It was fine, but I wouldn't go out of my way to go here for a beach day.
