Wilbur-by-the-Sea Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Wilbur-by-the-Sea is an unincorporated community located in Volusia County, between Daytona Beach and Ponce Inlet along the Atlantic Coast of Florida. It is only an hour’s drive to Cape Canaveral, the city of St. Augustine and Disneyland. Wilbur-by-the-Sea is a peaceful community surrounded by uncrowded, pristine beaches, nature reserves, golf courses and historic attractions. Some of the activities available in the area include swimming, sunning, shelling and beachcombing, fishing, boating, snorkeling, scuba diving, parasailing, canoeing and nature tours. The silky, white sand beaches are some of the best in the world and some of the wildlife you might encounter include the Bottlenose Dolphin, Florida Manatee and a variety of birds. Wilbur-by-the-Sea is near the Ponce DeLeon Lighthouse, which was constructed more than 100 years ago. This 175-foot lighthouse includes a museum with historical displays and a gift shop. A 203-step climb to the top provides spectacular views. Of course, for more action, Wilbur-by-the-Sea is just minutes to Daytona Beach’s famous pier and boardwalk, which always has something going on, especially during Spring Break week, when it can get quite crowded. But never fear, at the end of the day, you can retreat to Wilbur-by-the-Sea, which offers plenty of privacy and peace and quiet.
