There may be some improvements coming soon to the Jacksonville Beach Pier. The pier’s operator, Curt Dewitt, said it’s all about bringing business to Jax Beach and bringing some fun to the area’s residents.
“If they’re here for four or five days, they fill hotel rooms, they support other local restaurants, and then they go to all the other attractions to make sure they have the most fun they can while they’re in Jacksonville,” Dewitt said.Dewitt said the plans include adding food vendors like Rita’s Italian Ice, local art vendors, games for children, and a new souvenir shop to the pier.
Beyond just bringing foot traffic to Jacksonville Beach’s surrounding businesses, the pier will also begin handing out information on the local businesses to tourists, according to Dewitt. One of those tourists is Shelley Sargeant, who said she could see herself visiting Jacksonville beach much more often because of these new attractions.
