Volusia County Beach Pass information is available online. If you will be visiting the the beaches in Daytona Beach, New Smyrna Beach, Ponce Inlet, Ormond Beach, etc., then you will need to obtain a Volusia County Beach Pass.

If you park off the beach and walk onto it you can purchase a parking permit, or you may be able to find parking areas that are free.
