Fall in Ormond Beach: A Quiet Coastal Escape

Fall is a hidden gem season in Ormond Beach, offering sunny skies, gentle ocean breezes, and warm temperatures without the summer humidity. The beaches are peaceful and uncrowded—perfect for long walks, shell collecting, or quiet mornings by the waves. Visitors can enjoy outdoor dining, art walks, and scenic drives along the famous A1A with vibrant coastal foliage. Plus, fall brings a full calendar of local events and festivals, making it the ideal time to experience the charm of this laid-back coastal town without the rush of peak season.

 

Veterans Day Celebration

Nov 11th

The Ormond Memorial Art Museum & Gardens will pay tribute to those who defend our freedom at their annual Veterans Day ceremony. The Ormond Memorial Art Museum & Gardens was founded in 1946 by Ormond Beach residents as a living monument to creative freedom and equality of all persons, and to commemorate the service of World War I and World War II veterans who fought valiantly for that ideal.

The 2025 Veterans Day Tribute will be formatted as a USO-style show incorporating music, dance, comedy, special guests, and more! The Halifax Repertory Theatre will help transport the audience back to the time of the Andrew Sisters with vintage glamour, a love for harmonies, and a little sass! Popular and patriotic tunes from the time will also be performed by the Daytona Beach Choral Society.
