Daytona isnt that far and is a great day trip. I did Daytona this past trip and also did Clearwater beach. Clearwater took me about 1.5hrs to get there from Kissimmee. It is a much nicer beach and great to swim and bake in the sun. Dayona has more attractions on the beach. The day that we went there was high tide so no cars allowed on the beach which made for not as fun of a day because we were going to rent 4 wheelers.
