Indianapolis to Jacksonville, Florida (IND → JAX)

Jacksonville straddles the St. Johns River in the northeast corner of Florida, about 12 miles south of the Georgia line, and by land area it’s the largest city in the contiguous United States. The Beaches, the oceanfront towns east of the city, are the draw for a first visit, with Riverside and Avondale the neighborhoods along the river for a night out, and St. Augustine, the oldest continuously inhabited European-founded city in the contiguous United States, from 1565, is 40 miles south. The airport is 13 miles north of downtown.
