Winter’s on its way out, but it’s a little too chilly to hit the beach just yet. Until then, get a group of friends and check out these activities happening near Jacksonville this March.

A Day on the Course

THE PLAYERS Championship returns to TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, March 8-13. More than just a golf tournament, this event features great food and drinks, and a Military Appreciation Day concert featuring Kelsea Ballerini. Some vendor highlights include Wine & Dine on 9 presented by Meiomi Wines, a bier garden presented by Hoptinger on hole 16, and the Taste of Jax near the 12th hole, with bites available from Cousin’s Maine Lobster, Mojo’s BBQ, ABBQ, and Silkie’s Chicken & Champagne Bar. Tickets range from $30 to $113 per day and are on sale now.

A Night of Entertainment

Catch a show at the Florida Theatre. March’s calendar is packed! Internationally celebrated magicians will—poof—appear out of nowhere at the Masters of Illusion tour March 9. For Zeppelin fans, March 11 will be a magic night when Get the Led Out takes the stage to pay homage to the rock-and-roll legends. And March 26, Jackass star Steve-O brings his “Bucket List” comedy tour to town to prove he doesn’t just do hilariously stupid things, he says hilariously stupid things, too. Check out the full calendar of events here.

A Voyage on the Water

See the city lights from a new perspective on a large open-air passenger boat! For a cute date night, book a sunset cruise with St. John’s River Taxi & Tours. BYOB is encouraged, so pack some wine and cheese to take aboard. Tours are available nightly from Wednesday through Sunday.

If you’d rather keep it casual, hop on the Sip & Stroll Taxi March 17. Catch a ride from the Northbank to the Southbank to shop, eat, drink, and enjoy live tunes as you stroll along the Riverwalk and enjoy scenic views of the downtown skyline. Tickets start at just $12 and you can check availability here.
