Edgewater

Edgewater has served as a riverfront settlement on Florida’s Atlantic coast since the late 19th century. Set on the western shore of the Indian River Lagoon, the city belongs to a long estuarine waterway separated from the ocean by barrier islands. It was known as Hawks Park before incorporating under the name Edgewater in 1951, a reminder of the area’s earlier settlement history. The nearby Canaveral National Seashore protects a broad stretch of undeveloped coastline, while the lagoon supports boating, fishing and birdlife. Edgewater is also close to New Smyrna Beach, linking a quiet waterfront community with the wider Volusia County coast.
