Located in New Smyrna Beach just south of the Ponce Inlet lighthouse this 2.5 mile boardwalk accessible trail offers views of sand dune habitat, the Ponce Inlet light house and the Indian river and Atlantic coast line. Lots of coastal wildlife such as tortoises and birds abound. Plus with direct beach access you don’t know what may swim by in the ocean including us! We can take a dip following the hike for those planning to stay into the afternoon for a swim. *Terrain*: The elevation of the trail is pretty flat and is full sun. There is less than 36 foot elevation of the recycled wood boardwalk overall. It is supposed to be pretty accessible including a 300 ft fishing pier.
