Jackie Robinson Ballpark

Jackie Robinson Ballpark, situated on Daytona Beach’s City Island, is the oldest minor league ballpark still in use and currently home to the Daytona Tortugas. In 1946, it was a segregated stadium when Jackie Robinson made history as the first African-American player to participate in an integrated Major League Baseball game. The ballpark was renamed in his honor in 1989, commemorating his significant role in breaking baseball’s color barrier. Today, visitors can experience the rich history and ongoing legacy of the sport, surrounded by the scenic views of the Halifax River.
