New Smyrna Beach Apartments and Rentals

Located in Volusia County, FL, New Smyrna Beach was named one of the 20 best surfing towns by National Geographic. Because of its 13 miles of white sand beaches, 300 surfable days of the year and consistently warm water, the surfing town has been a destination for many. To boot, the beaches are not nearly as crowded as other surfing hotspots like Cocoa Beach. Situated along Florida’s northern Atlantic Coast, New Smyrna Beach is known for its subtropical climate, which helps produce coconut palms and bananas. New Smyrna Beach apartments for rent are perfect for people seeking a laidback lifestyle, which is why more than 22,400 people call the town home.

The area now considered New Smyrna Beach was once the site of the largest attempt at colonial settlement in the country. Scottish physician and entrepreneur Andrew Turnbull established a colony of 1,225 immigrants with hopes of commercializing corn, indigo, rice, hemp and cotton in 1768.
