Looking for sunshine, beaches, and championship golf? Jacksonville, Florida offers the perfect warm-weather getaway from central Pennsylvania.

Allegiant’s nonstop service from Harrisburg International Airport (MDT) to Jacksonville International Airport (JAX) operates twice weekly, making it easy to plan a long weekend or extended Florida escape.

Jacksonville is known for its 22 miles of white-sand beaches, relaxed coastal vibe, and more than 400 parks and outdoor spaces. Visitors can spend the day surfing or fishing along the Atlantic coastline, strolling the Jacksonville Beach Pier, or exploring the restaurants, shops, and nightlife along the waterfront.

Golf fans have an extra reason to visit this time of year. Just outside Jacksonville in Ponte Vedra Beach, THE PLAYERS Championship at TPC Sawgrass takes place March 10–15, bringing the world’s best golfers to one of the sport’s most iconic courses — including the famous island-green 17th hole.

Jacksonville also offers plenty to explore beyond the beach. The city’s vibrant downtown riverfront, craft breweries, live music venues, and cultural attractions make it easy to fill a weekend itinerary.

Just about an hour south sits St. Augustine, America’s oldest city. Founded by the Spanish in 1565, the historic destination features brick-lined streets, centuries-old architecture, art galleries, museums, and a lively culinary scene that draws visitors from around the world.

Whether you’re planning a golf getaway, beach vacation, or historic coastal adventure, Jacksonville offers something for every traveler.
