New Smyrna Beach occupies a notable place in history as one of the oldest cities in Florida, and is the site of the largest single attempt at British colonization in the New World.
The Pre-Columbian history of New Smyrna begins thousands of years ago with the Native Peoples who lived and thrived here as hunters, gatherers, and fishermen. The Timucuan Indians, who had a highly developed, complex social system, were a strong and aristocratic tribe in this area for hundreds of years until the arrival of Spanish explorer, Ponce de Leon. Evidence of their lives here still exists in numerous Indian middens (shell mounds) and burial sites. Sadly, within 200 years of Ponce de Leon's landing here in 1513, the strong Timucuan population had vanished.
Today, New Smyrna Beach is a charming beach town rooted in local culture, art, and a beautiful white, sandy shoreline. It is also known for its coastal architecture and personality. It is a prime location for surfers and visitors looking for a laid-back community filled with hidden adventures.
