Disappearing Island

One of the most beautiful sites in NSB, the islet is tidal and accessible only by boat. Local travel agencies organize tours of the island, while locals who are familiar with the tides and waterways come on their own boats. At low tide the islet, which is covered by low shrubs and beaches, offers beautiful views of Ponce Inlet to the east and the Intracoastal Waterway to the north and south.

Perched on 250 acres of sand dunes at the northern tip of the New Smyrna Beach peninsula, the area is surrounded by water on three sides, as it's where the Ponce Inlet, the Intracoastal Waterway, and the Atlantic Ocean meet.

Atlantic Center for the Arts
Founded by local artist Doris "Doc" Leeper, this tranquil artist seminary plays hosts to artists worldwide, and invites them to come and create art at the center. The center itself is an architectural marvel in the modern architectural style, but in an area that feels surprisingly remote for an arts center, hidden inside the rainforest. Exhibits are always coming and going.
Open until 4PMDonations are accepted, but admission is free

Marine Discovery Center
Small aquarium and tour agency. Tours launch from the marina on North Causeway, not the site of the aquarium.
Eat
Blackbeards
Popular restaurant with a large menu, with its emphasis on seafood and steak. For quantity at lower prices, this is the place to come, as you'll get the opportunity to self-serve soup or salad and you'll receive some snacks along with your main course, probably the prime rib the restaurant is best known for. Parking is limited to the immdiate surrounds of the restaurant. The restaurant's main positives are that it has a lively atmosphere, especially in the evenings, and provides a good example of American cuisine. It's not walkable from Canal St but is easily visible by car from US-1.
