Going there for 3 days. Anything one could do to keep himself entertained? Can't be an all day event since this is a business trip and I'll only have evenings available.

TPC Sawgrass coming up (golf). That is near St. Augustine. You could go there and see the Castillo De San Marco (old spanish fort). Otherwise, Jax is pretty boring unless you go to the beach.

Jacksonville Landing is pretty nice, IMHO. At least, it was some years ago when I visited.

St. Augustine is a nice historic place to see as well.

I forget how far Amelia Island is, but that was very beautiful from what I remember.

The Landing becomes "high crime' at night.
St Augustine is about a 45 minute drive. It has some cool places to eat.

Ironic that the most common advice in this thread so far is to spend your time in jacksonville.... going somewhere else

You could masturbate or watch tv, I suppose. You could even order some porn in your hotel and do both at the same time :thumbsup:

If you do this while drinking heavily, you'll have achieved a trifecta!
