Our Story
Cultivating coastal beauty in New Smyrna Beach and Volusia County for over 20 years.
A Family Tradition on A1A
Sandy Beach Garden Center began over two decades ago with a simple mission: to provide our coastal community with the healthiest, most vibrant tropical plants adapted to Florida's unique environment.
As a second-generation family business serving New Smyrna Beach, Edgewater, Port Orange, Daytona Beach, and surrounding Volusia County communities, we treat every customer like a neighbor. We know that gardening in salt air and sandy soil has its specific demands, which is why we specialize in plants that don't just survive here—they thrive.
When you visit our nursery on South Atlantic Avenue, you'll likely be greeted by Mango, our resident garden cat who loves napping near the checkout counter. It's this warm, welcoming atmosphere that keeps our customers coming back year after year.
