History
Ormond Beach is a city located in Volusia County, Florida, United States. The area was originally inhabited by the Timucuan Indians before being colonized by the Spanish in the 16th century.
In the late 19th century, Ormond Beach became a popular winter resort destination for wealthy Northern visitors, who were drawn to the area's mild climate and beautiful beaches. Among the notable visitors were John D. Rockefeller, Henry Flagler, and Thomas Edison. The Ormond Hotel, which was built in 1888, became a popular gathering place for the wealthy and influential.
In the early 20th century, Ormond Beach was a hub for automobile racing, with the first automobile race taking place on the beach in 1902. The beach was also used for land speed record attempts, with many world records being set there in the 1920s and 1930s.
