South Mainland is a community on the edge of New Smyrna Beach’s city limits, quite literally on the cutoff of the zip code. According to Chris Schwarz and Tim Loomis, owners of White Whale Real Estate and area experts, “Locals call this area ‘in between US-1 and the river.’ This is a highly sought-after area because of its old-school charm, no HOA, closeness to the historic downtown Canal Street and, of course, the river.” With Indian River North to the east, a commercial center to the west and downtown around the corner, residents regularly set sail and shop around the neighborhood.
the downtown area on Canal Street is always active for South Mainland families.
South Mainland is bordered by US 1 and the Indian River Lagoon.

Boating buddies get together at Smyrna Yacht Club
Situated along Indian River North, boating is a popular pastime in South Mainland. Many locals are members of Smyrna Yacht Club, which Schwarz and Loomis say is “currently at capacity and on a three-year wait list.” In addition to time on the water, the club offers tennis and pickleball courts, as well as a pool. Residents wanting to get physically active can visit Planet Fitness or Jessie Stevenson Kovalenko Memorial Gymnasium, commonly called the City Gym, which is maintained and operated by the New Smyrna Beach government. Families can head north to Riverside Park, a green space just outside the neighborhood with various amenities. Kids can run around the shaded playground and look out at the water from an adjacent mini boardwalk. Visitors like to walk along the paved paths that wind throughout the park past a few memorial statues.
The Smyrna Yacht Club is a private and highly sought after club in the South Mainland area.

Waterfront properties without the beach traffic
Homebuyers are spoiled for choice in South Mainland, where various architectural styles, colors and sizes line the residential blocks. Schwarz and Loomis share that the area has homes “ranging from the 1900s all the way to new luxury-built homes. Many find this a great alternative to living on the beachside, as it is a little more laid back and they don’t have to battle the beach traffic.” Intimate two-bedroom bungalows and long ranch-style homes are next door to larger renovated multi-story properties. Some residences were built as early as the 1920s, but newer builds are also available. Prices range between $350,000 and $750,000, while waterfront, resort-style homes are priced over $1 million and feature unobstructed views of the river and private docks. These also vary in style, ranging from highly modern aesthetics to Mediterranean-inspired architecture.
