neptune beach: Sea & Sky Spectacular, Jacksonville Beach, 10/20-10/21/12 - 10/16/12 12:22 AM
It's that time of year again, and the Beaches turn to host the Sea & Sky Spectacular!  We'll have aircraft practicing towards the latter part of the week, so prepare your households (parents, kids & pets) for the noise booms we have not heard for the past two years. 
Be prepared for road closures during the latter part of the week (see link for more details), as well as parking restrictions. On the days of the event, we have a ton of traffic, so please be patient; coupled with road closures, and parking lot closures, it makes more sense to many … (2 comments)

neptune beach: HGTV Smart Home 2013, Jacksonville Beach, FL - 08/23/12 04:25 AM
This is fabulous news for Paradise Key, here in Jacksonville Beach! The HGTV Smart Home will be constructed here in Jacksonville Beach, a short distance to the ocean, and a fabulous place to call home.
Jacksonville Beach has more public beach access and parking than our neighboring beaches to the North (which include Atlantic & Neptune Beach), and it's own distinct personality complete with downtown shops, and restaurants.
As a local Jax Beach resident, I think this is fabulous & I'd be happy to help you if you are interested in more information.

neptune beach: Top 50 Most Valuable Homes In Duval County, FL - 04/09/12 10:18 PM
Kind of interesting tidbit I stumbled across on the Times Union website this morning with a link to the Top 50 most valuable homes in Duval County, which is home to Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach, Atlantic Beach and Neptune Beach.
Most are located along water, but not all are oceanfront; a large number are riverfront estates on the St. John's River which is a very picturesque setting.
Would love to see the companion piece including St. John's County homes, which is home to Ponte Vedra & Ponte Vedra Beach!

neptune beach: Restaurant Review: Metro Diner, Jacksonville Beach, FL - 02/19/12 04:15 AM
A few friends and I ventured out for lunch today, as we typically do, and today we enjoyed The Metro Diner.
Now, the Metro Diner has been around for quite some time, but this location in Jacksonville Beach is a new one; their soft open was just last weekend, so the place was packed.
Think southern comfort food at fabulous prices and you have the gist. You can peruse their menu here. And, they have been featured on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives as well.
Since they are new, you can expect a wait (ours was an hour to be seated today), … (1 comments)

neptune beach: Poe's Tavern, Atlantic Beach, FL - 01/11/12 02:50 AM
It's nice to read positive news about a local (well, 2nd location) recently opened restaurant. Poe's Tavern opened right around Halloween (I think) and has had an immediate impact on the Town Center restaurant scene.
Based on Edgar Allen Poe (obviously) the menu has all sorts of offerings with Poe titles.  The ladys' room is wallpapered in pages from Poe books (can't tell you about the mens' room, haven't been in there - yet!)
It's a cool inside/outside floorplan, with an open deck area, then a high top table area that is covered, but has roll up garage doors to let … (5 comments)
