Daytona Beach Boardwalk
At its conception the Boardwalk was originally called "the Broadwalk" as it was a broad stretch of cement, and not boards. Many references can be found referring to the attraction as Broadwalk. The common name became the Boardwalk after the editor of the local newspaper committed to calling it that in the newspaper, and it caught on. The editor was concerned with the advertising value of the term Boardwalk over Broadwalk (as Daytona at that time was looking to market as the Atlantic City of the South), as well as the "vulgar connotation" of using the term "broad" in relation to women who may be walking there.
An article appeared in the Daytona Beach News Journal on May 21, 2015, stating that Volusia County is looking into possibly expanding the boardwalk.
On June 14, 2018, two riders fell 34 feet and six people were injured after the Sand Blaster roller coaster derailed. The cause of the derailment was determined to be an excessively high speed, and the coaster was removed from the park at the order of the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services in 2019.
