The New Smyrna Beach Area includes the following communities: Edgewater, Oak Hill,<br />
Port Orange, Osteen and New Smyrna Beach. From historic downtowns and farms, to<br />
beach locations and quaint communities, to various parks and trails, the New Smyrna<br />
Beach Area provides a myriad of opportunities to bring your vision to life. With<br />
five international airports from as close as 18 miles away, and the proximity to Interstate<br />
95 and Interstate 4, our area is easy to get to and to navigate. Some of our unique<br />
features include Old Fort Park, the Canaveral National Seashore, the Atlantic Center for<br />
the Arts, world-class surfing and fishing, the Indian River Lagoon, and 17 miles of white,<br />
sandy beach that would make the perfect backdrop for any production. New Smyrna<br />
Beach also has two main historic downtowns — Canal Street and Flagler Avenue — that<br />
give off the perfect quaint, small-town feel.<br />
We know that it takes more than the perfect location to make the perfect scene. If there is<br />
any assistance you may need to make your production a success, please feel free to<br />
