About Ormond Beach
Ormond Beach sits just north of Daytona on Florida's Atlantic coast and shares its famous hard-packed sand — firm enough that early automobile pioneers once raced on it, earning the area the nickname 'Birthplace of Speed.' Today it's a quieter, more residential neighbor to Daytona, with the same broad Atlantic beach. Water is warm through the long Florida season, cooler in winter. Rip currents are Florida’s deadliest beach hazard, so check the safety flag and rip-current risk above, follow posted flags, and swim near a lifeguard.
