Southeast Volusia<br />
Advertising Authority<br />
• DBA New Smyrna Beach Area <strong>Visitor</strong>s Bureau.<br />
• Established on October 1, 1987, pursuant to the Florida<br />
Statues to develop and implement the annual marketing<br />
plan using the Tourism Development Taxes (the Bed<br />
Taxes) of Southeast Volusia County.<br />
• The County Tax Collector collects a 6% Tourism<br />
Development Tax, levied on each dollar a visitor spends<br />
on lodging in Southeast Volusia. Of those, 3% goes to<br />
the Ocean Center, with approximately 1% going to the<br />
county for administration fees. That leaves 2% of<br />
the bed taxes for marketing Southeast Volusia.<br />
We identify and showcase what makes the area special<br />
and di≠erent from all other sun and beach destinations.<br />
The sales, marketing, and media relation of the NSBAVB’s<br />
visitor services team works to deliver meaningful messaging<br />
to the public to inspire them to choose this area<br />
and Volusia County as a whole, as their travel destination.<br />
