NEW SMYRNA BEACH, FLORIDA
Dock Builders New Smyrna Beach
Dock builders in New Smyrna Beach keep a dock to 1,000 square feet, 15 feet above mean high water and 10 feet from side lines, with projection capped at 25% of the waterway (LDR Sec. 803.04).
We connect New Smyrna Beach owners with licensed marine contractors who design to it.
Free consultation and a written scope.
Exempt waters
The Intracoastal, Indian River, Callalisa Creek and Indian River Lagoon are exempt from the projection cap. Elsewhere it rises to 30% when no buildable lots sit across the water.

Why it matters
The city manager’s plan review
Before the building permit, the city manager approves a plan with a mean high water survey, soundings every 3 feet to the opposite shore and the dock’s share of the waterway width.
