On Riverside Ave, you can awaken your inner fiesta with delicious, fresh Mexican cuisine and a rooftop setting that allows you to take in the sunset while you take in the tequila. Not only that, but it’s a nice spot to hang out after the sun has set. What could be better than tasty burritos and a glorious setting sun over the city?

The best happy hour at the beach. Amazing food, views and bar staff. They are true mixologist! Try Carve Vodka, it's made in Jacksonville and crushes Titos in taste test

I had the fried fish sandwich choosing the local flounder. I received a generous amount of light flakey fish between some very good bread. The fries where also very good.

A restaurant perched on top of a building in Riverside overlooking the city. Enjoy a delicious dinner from their diverse menu and wind down the evening with a savory desert as you watch the sunset over the city. The rooftop lounge also offers some of the most creative cocktails in Jax that are handcrafted nightly by their staff.

This spot is open and easy to access, giving Jacksonville residents and visitors a stunning view of the St. John’s River, the bridges and of course- a fiery sunset. If you’re out for a jog or bike ride at this time, you’re in for an enjoyable workout that has you staring at the sky. Afterward, there are plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance to get the night started.

This quaint park offers a picturesque view of Downtown Jax with the river in sight. It provides the perfect, relaxing atmosphere to bring the kids for a romp at the playground with the sunset there to add a bit of sparkle to the day. Bring your camera- this is also a great spot for pure photo shoot magic.

Get away from the city and fully immerse yourself in nature at Big Talbot Island. You’ll be snapping shots galore with your camera, especially at the local favorite: Driftwood boneyard. Picture this: a long stretch of beach strewn with fallen, massive Oak Trees that have been slowly salt eaten over time. It’s an absolutely beautiful and romantic setting for sunset with the one you love.

Perfect place in the beaches area to be close to nature for the sunset. The observation platform that overlooks Pablo Creek Estuary gives you a beautiful view of the water while you watch the sunrise or set.
