I would have thought a trip to New Smyrna Beach would have been to the actual beach! If it was just to be a shopping trip, it should have been advertised as such. We go to New Smyrna beach quite frequently as we love the beach there. We actually go to Apollo Beach which is part of the extensive Canaveral National Seashore that continues to the south, all-natural and minimally developed. If you like more excitement, you can go to New Smyrna Beach proper, where you can drive on the beach, like Daytona, but its not quite as touristy.
