Amenities New Smyrna Beach, Florida, is a beautiful seashore retreat with 13 miles of white, sandy beaches and some of the best fishing on the east coast. Located at the mouth of the Ponce de Leon Inlet, this central Florida town is known as the "World's Safest Bathing Beach." The 13.2 miles of New Smyrna Beach are protected by rock ledges located offshore. These ledges eliminate the dangerous undercurrents that are common along the Atlantic coast of the United States. Best of all, New Smyrna Beach is the nearest beach to the world famous attractions such as Walt Disney World, Sea World, Epcot Center, and Universal Studios. These popular Florida family vacation spots are an easy one hour and 15-minute drive from New Smyrna Beach. Daytona Beach, with its exciting night life, great shopping, motor sports, and motorcycle activities is just a short drive north.
