Visit New Smyrna Beach from vacation home rentals

If New Smyrna Beach was a person, it would walk around wearing board shorts and a beret. That's right, this place is all about the surf and the arts scene. More chilled out than the nearby motor sports hub of Daytona Beach, New Smyrna Beach has a charm all of its own. Catch some waves, sun yourself on the sand, or explore the vast, undeveloped dunes of the Canaveral National Seashore, before retiring to your New Smyrna Beach vacation rental for a cold one and a BBQ by the sea. Doesn't get much better than this.

Things to do

Tourist attractions near New Smyrna Beach vacation rentals

New Smyrna Beach is famous for its art scene, and if you want to see what all the fuss is about, the Atlantic Center for the Arts is a good place to start. It runs galleries and an artists' community. To get to grips with local history, how about paying a visit to the New Smyrna Museum of History, or the New Smyrna Sugar Mill ruins? And if you still feel like your New Smyrna Beach vacation rental could do with a bit more illumination, you'll want to check out the Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse and Museum.

Activities

What to do near New Smyrna Beach vacation homes

Crank up the Beach Boys tunes and rub some salt in your hair, because the surf's up at New Smyrna Beach. Regularly voted one of the best surf towns in the U.S., the beach here is pretty much perfect, whether you're looking to catch a wave, a fish, or some rays on the sand. And when you're done with all that fresh salty air, why not spice it up with a whiff of petrol? Take an excursion up the road to the motor sports mecca of Daytona, for more NASCAR and biking events than you can shake a steering wheel at.

Weather

Best time to visit New Smyrna Beach vacation rentals

Where the weather's concerned, Florida likes to keep it simple. Why have 4 seasons when 2 is plenty enough? Summers in New Smyrna Beach generally run between May and October, and tend to be hot and humid. You can expect pretty much daily rainstorms, but they rarely stick around long. As for winter, those palm trees should give you a hint that you're not going to suffer with the cold on your New Smyrna Beach vacation rental. Florida winters are warm and dry, frequently attracting folks from elsewhere in the States who don't fancy putting a sweater on.

Natural features

A beach vacation with an interstellar twist

New Smyrna Beach is one of a string of exceptional oceanfront resorts lying along Florida's Atlantic Coast. One feature of the local area that you'll definitely want to check out is the Canaveral National Seashore. Stretching south from New Smyrna Beach, this immaculate, 25-mile strip of protected beach and dunes is the longest piece of undeveloped land on the whole of the Florida coast. It's a haven for wildlife, but if you hear a rumbling in the distance, you'll want to turn round sharpish. The launch facility for the Kennedy Space center is at the southern end.
