Beachside distances are straight-line to the nearest public beach access or ramp (Volusia County data); private walkovers owned by a building aren't in the county's data. "Oceanfront lot" means the county lot lines run to the beach with nothing but beach or dune in between (Volusia County parcel map). Mainland drive times and miles follow the roads, from this home to the quickest of the nearby beach accesses; they are estimates from a routing service (OpenRouteService), and actual times vary with traffic, traffic lights, season and events. Beach driving depends on the tide and the season; check the county's ramp status before you go.
