Plan Ahead for Your 2023 Vacation

Become a Surfer

Explore your adventurous side and ride the surf this spring break with family and friends. New Smyrna Beach is one of the best surf towns in America because the waves are easier for beginners. Book 2-hour surfing lessons at Nichols Surf Shop and surf like a pro during your vacation in New Smyrna Beach. Hauling around a surfboard while traveling is very inconvenient, luckily you can rent one locally at either Nichols Surf Shop or Red Dog Surf Shop. Book a direct oceanfront condo or home so you always have easy access to the waves!
