Itinerary

Step 1

We'll head South towards Ponce Inlet and the southern tip of the barrier island. As we go, we'll keep watch for dolphins, stingrays and other sea life and try to catch a glimpse of a notoriously shy manatee! You'll be able to see the many seafront mansions along the coast and many bridges, including the Main Street drawbridge and Memorial Bridge

Step 2

Once at the Inlet, we'll spend some time viewing the Ponce de Leon Lighthouse.. one of the few remaining working lighthouses in Florida. We'll also drive by Disappearing Island, a sand bar that comes and goes with the tides.. and is also home to more than 100 boats and party-goes on the weekends. We'll also venture into the mouth of the Inlet to spend a short time on the Atlantic Ocean and the unobstructed views of the horizon to the east.

Step 3

From the Inlet, we'll head South and explore the stunning scenery and waterfront homes of New Smyrna Beach. We'll continue southwards towards Edgewater, where manantees are known to pop up. We can find a quiet spot for a dip in the calm waters or go tubing.

Step 4

As we head back, we'll take another route with fewer houses but abundant tropical landscape on both sides as we go. We'll go by Bird Island, home to more than 10,000 sea birds in season and stay on the lookout for more dolphins and manatees.
