New Smyrna Beach Equals Vacation Bliss

It’s a typical Florida tale; you’re vacationing in a charming beachside town with plenty to keep you busy, but should you so desire you’re just a few miles away from the larger cities, the theme parks, and of course any number of attractive beaches that will provide a slightly different view of paradise.

Located on Florida’s Central Atlantic Coast, New Smyrna Beach is just such a place. North of Cape Canaveral and south of the Daytona Area, you’ll find a little of everything and plenty of open space. “A little of everything” includes antique shops, cozy restaurants, upscale boutiques and places to rent all the gear you’ll need to snorkel, swim and fish.

Hints of history are found in the architecture of downtown and the calendar is filled with special events, so this vacation won’t be lacking in the cultural department. The yearly Riverfest, Jazz Festival and Seaside Fiesta make for entertaining options should you happen to be in town, but the everyday delights of just being here are enough to keep you perfectly satisfied with your sunny surroundings.

Increase the privacy factor by choosing a condo or house along the shoreline. These convenient properties capitalize on New Smyrna Beach’s peaceful family friendliness without separating you from the high-profile attractions, as Disney/Orlando and the Kennedy Space Center are each about an hour away. In other words, like any good Florida destination, this one doesn’t disappoint.
