Esther Street Beachfront Park - Park in New Smyrna Beach - 551 Esther St, USA

I only visited the beach area, and it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Water was beautiful clear and clean, and you can park on the sand with a disabled parking placard, which worked out great for me! I use a wheelchair, and I was able to push over the hard sand, but the softer sand was more challenging. My family said the restrooms were very clean and well maintained. I visited for an adaptive surfing event with the Oceans of Hope Foundation, but I'll be visiting again for sure!

Good beach to play in the water and get some sun. The parking at this spot fills up quickly. This beach was more crowded than we are accustomed to but everyone was very nice.

$20/day parking. Pay meter was not working at the time I wrote this. You can pay by cellphone. A little off the beaten path unlike the other pay for parking beachfront parks along this strip on NSB. Many nice covered picnic pavilions. Dog waste bag station. Large boardwalk with benches. Volleyball area separate from the actual beach. Small covered play area for the children. Water fountain but was not working. Outdoor showers that did work. Unlocked decently clean restrooms but the light didn’t work. Ramp or steps to the beach. Bonfires allowed but read rules to comply. At night, homeless sleep on the boardwalk benches - just an FYI incase it’s dark and you didn’t think someone may be there as you may not see them lying down. They didn’t bother anyone. Just stunned me as I was walking as I wasn’t really expecting it.

Here is a nice place for the family day at the beach as you see they have the play area for the kids to play. Then there is a small deck that has an area to set. Plus on some nights they have fun circle here. Yes you do need to pay if you don't have the parking pass you can pay for all year with the city( pass is for more then just this parking place ) Have a great time

The park itself is okay it does have bathrooms and showers and easy access down to the beach so if that's what you're looking for it's perfect. Take my advice and go early if you wait till 10 a.m. or after you will not get a spot and you will barely be able to get to the park at all. New Smyrna on the beach side is nice but it is not very accommodating for large crowds of people. When they built it there were probably only a few thousand people living in New Smyrna they definitely need to do some new construction on the spacing and roads there rather than adding newer things farther away from the beach.

Quiet parking area on the beach. Covered picnic tables and restrooms are available. There is also a small playground area. Easy to find.

Absolutely a hidden gem! The sand is solid so it's quite easy to walk across. Waves aren't overwhelming and the water reaches quite far so it's very kid friendly. As the tide comes in and the wind blows the waves get bigger which is awesome. Parking is close, even the pay parking isn't bad and so long as you're not over by the surfers you'll only see manatees and dolphins. The surfing area is where the sharks are at though the lifeguards are good about keeping an eye out. Definitely worth the visit!

The beach was neat, good family environment, parking well organized bathrooms clean, showers ok. There is a playground for little kids.
