About this postcard
A bird's-eye view looks west over the Halifax River toward Daytona Beach's waterfront, with the municipal yacht basin and its finger docks in the foreground, City Island and its ball field in the middle, and the main shopping district along the mainland shore beyond. The caption names the scene as the Yacht Basin, City Island and Main Shopping District. City Island, reached by bridges across the Halifax River, has long served as a civic and recreational park for the city, and the basin was a popular mooring spot for visiting boaters.
