Tomoka State Park, Archaeological museum in Ormond Beach, United States
Tomoka State Park Museum sits within park grounds that mix natural settings and exhibits showing Native American objects, historical displays, and artworks by Fred Dana Marsh. The collection occupies a location directly along a river and bay in central Florida.
Native Timucua people founded the village of Nocoroco at this location before Spanish explorers reached the region. The site served as a major settlement center for centuries along the waterways.
The collection shows objects and scenes of everyday Timucua life along the river and bay. You can see how these people fished, hunted, and spent their time near the water.
The museum and park remain open from 8 AM to sunset daily, with parking available directly at the entrance for visitors. Paths are easy to walk, and outdoor seating areas invite you to rest while exploring the natural surroundings.
A 1957 monument titled 'Legend of Tomokie' depicts a Timucua leader and stands permanently outdoors within the park grounds. This sculpture is a notably well-maintained example of public art from the 20th century.
