To the south of New Smyrna Beach by just a few miles is the world famous Mosquito Lagoon, north Indian River Lagoon system, Canaveral National Seashore and the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. South of this is the Kennedy Space Center, NASA, Cocoa Beach and the Port Canaveral cruise line area. This quiet beach town attracts surfers, art lovers, outdoor enthusiasts, golfers, boaters, kayakers as well as fisherman alike. It is a known destination for retirees and a great place to raise a family. New Smyrna Beach is one of the most beautiful beach cities in Florida. The area was originally settled in 1768 and today has over 1,000,000 plus visitors a year. This figure alone speaks volumes for this beach town. It has a family oriented surrounding makeup and has a population roughly of about 24,000 residents. Along with the great beaches, awesome living conditions and great life styles it is the outstanding saltwater fishing here that keeps you coming back for more. The fishing near New Smyrna Beach is probably considered to be the best there is in central Florida for saltwater species. Inshore and offshore. It is by far the closest fishing within an hours drive of Orlando Florida and its theme parks. The neighboring cities are Edgewater and Oak Hill, which borders New Smyrna Beach on the mainland side of the ICW(Intra Coastal Waterway). Edgewater is roughly the same size as far as population, offers tidal backcountry fishing along mangrove creeks and shorelines and access to the northern end of the Canaveral National Seashore. Summertime tarpon fishing can be a premium here in this area. Oak Hill is a small town with a population of around 1400 residents and sits on the Mosquito Lagoon and National Park itself. It is the gateway to the redfish capital of the world and leads directly to the best backcountry flats fishing in central Florida.

It is here, on the Mosquito Lagoon, where giant redfish roam these pristine flats year around in the gin clear shallow back country waters. Making this area a sight fishing paradise. Fly fishing and spin fishing for trophy saltwater fish on light tackle. Large gator sea trout, black drum, snook, tarpon, ladyfish, jacks, flounder and so on make these inshore waters home.
