There's a couple of nice beaches, but not as nice as those on the Gulf side of FL. You're about half an hour from JAX and half an hour from St. Augustine, the oldest city in America (nice historic distinct with little shops and cafes along cobblestone streets). To be honest, there's not tons to do. You can make it to Orlando or Cape Canaveral in a little over 2 hours if you want to take a day trip. Sorry, I'm probably not much help. I don't venture over to the Atlantic side very often.
