I hope to retire to Jacksonville Fl from Michigan (burr!!)in early 2024 as I have family in Georgia.
I visited in Feb 2022 and took a look at properties with a real estate agent.
I took a look in zip code 32221 near a Church on Normandy I really like and the Oakleaf area.
Anyone have any suggestions of good safe clean zip code areas that have nice homes under $300k near Normandy and no more than 35 minutes from the beach

Well its either near Normandy/Oakleaf OR within 35 minutes to the beach. You are not making it to the beach from anywhere west of the river in that time frame, unless all the speed limits and the other cars on the road disappear.
$300k is a solid budget and you should be find a modest SF for that amount in many nice neighborhoods in Jacksonville. Why Oakleaf? Do you have a job or something you need to commute to daily?
I think most folks simply can't comprehend the size of the city until they move here and therefore have unrealistic ideas about commute times in and around Jax.
