About Ponce Inlet
Ponce Inlet (~3,371 residents, 2020 Census; ~3,494 estimated 2026, per worldpopulationreview.com, read September 24, 2026) is a small town at the southern tip of the Daytona Beach peninsula, bounded by the Atlantic Ocean, the Halifax River, and Ponce de Leon Inlet. Its centerpiece is the Ponce de Leon Inlet Light Station (1887) — at 175 feet, the tallest lighthouse in Florida and a National Historic Landmark, with 203 steps to the gallery deck. Strict landscaping rules keep it one of Florida's prettiest residential communities, with oceanfront condos, the Marine Science Center, and the 40-acre Ponce Preserve stretching from ocean to river.
