New Smyrna Beach, Florida
Part of a greater metropolitan area of East Central
Florida, the City of New Smyrna Beach is near the
confluence of two major interstate highways that
provide quick, easy access to the third largest consumer
region in the United States with a population of more
than 17 million. International airports in Daytona Beach
and Orlando, a local airport/industrial park, railroad
and nearby port facilities enhance New Smyrna Beach’s
efforts to provide a cost-effective and logistically
important location to do business with an exceptional
quality of life.
Despite its proximity to the Daytona Beach area
and
Atlantic Ocean beaches – with more than eight million
tourists annually – New Smyrna Beach has a quiet
charm and small-town ambiance all its own.
New Smyrna Beach is home to a nationally recognized
cultural center for performing and visual arts. A vibrant
beach side boutique shopping district, historic downtown
and antique district, excellent restaurants and
beautiful parks contribute to the charm. Golfing, fishing
(freshwater and saltwater) and a host of outdoor recreational
activities are part of everyday life. It is a community
in which the schools, churches and cultural
diversity play an important role. New Smyrna Beach
has a strong community spirit and offers a superior
quality of life for families to live, work, learn and play.
