New Smyrna Beach is our neighbor to the South. But it is a remote neighbor. It is on the other side of Ponce Inlet, and this is where our part of the Intracoastal, called Halifax River, ends and Indian River begins.

New Smyrna Beach, our Neighbor to the south

New Smyrna Beach presents itself as a quiet relaxing place away from Daytona’s buzz, but within 20-minute drive. This a bit over 20K residents coastal town is filled with vacationers – 1 Mil visitors a year.

You will love those beachside tree-lined streets, have fun on Flagler Ave. Like Daytona, they have a lot of condos on the beach.

New Smyrna Beach, Our Neighbor to the South

We drove to New Smyrna Beach on Sunday to look at some properties coming up for the auction in October. Driving along the ocean, I suggested that we stop at Chases on The Beach, a very popular oceanfront establishment with live music and a pool full of people.

We had a very nice lunch at Chases on The Beach in New Smyrna Beach, our smaller Daytona neighbor, proud that they are not Daytona.

Go figure

If you are in New Smyrna Beach, go and have fun at Chases...

Jon, looks like New Smyrna Beach is a hopping place! As I was looking at the photos and reading, I was just thinking how quiet my little neck of the woods is compared to yours. 1 million people a year visit? Wow... that boggles my mind.

New Smyrna Beach is considered a quiet place compared to Daytona with 8 Mil visitors, but we are simply dead compared with Orlando with about 50 Mil

Michele - it was funny. When you park and go to the restaurant, at the entrance there is a sign: "Shoes required". Well, at this rules is broken over and over.

And it is fun
