From Daytona Beach, the nearest documented casino venue in publicly published reference sources is Derby Lane at 131.6 miles straight-line. Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.
What this answer can measure
The query says “the casino,” but no single venue is identified by name. That means the useful answer here is a location guide to the documented venues measured from Daytona Beach, rather than a claim about one unspecified property.
Publicly published reference sources document 318 venue-to-Daytona Beach measurements in this file, but this is not a census of every casino venue in Florida or elsewhere. It is a set of documented straight-line measurements from the fixed point of Daytona Beach, Florida.

Because these are straight-line figures, they are best read as geographic orientation, not as a door-to-door route. If you need a usable trip plan, measure from your own start point with a mapping service and compare that with the named venue you intend to visit.
Why straight-line distance and real travel differ
A straight-line measurement connects two coordinates across the earth as the crow flies. Real travel follows the available road network, so it bends around coastlines, rivers, developed land patterns, access points, and other route constraints.
That matters especially in Florida and along coastal areas, where water bodies and shoreline shape can force indirect routing. Even when two points look close on a map, the practical route can lengthen because roads do not run in a perfect line between the two coordinates.
State borders can also affect routing in a broader regional sense, because the shortest road connection may not mirror the straight geographic relationship between two points. For that reason, straight-line distance is a useful comparison tool, but not a substitute for an actual route check.
Where the documented venues sit relative to Daytona Beach
Daytona Beach is in Florida. Using only the documented coordinates and location fields available here, Derby Lane is in St. Petersburg, Florida, and Palm Beach Kennel Club is in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Emerald Princess Casino is documented at coordinates 31.11257, -81.48899, which places it north of Daytona Beach’s latitude and west of Daytona Beach’s longitude. By contrast, Palm Beach Kennel Club at 26.692348, -80.0883 sits south of Daytona Beach and east of Daytona Beach’s longitude.
Derby Lane at 27.8667, -82.6267 is south and west of Daytona Beach. Immokalee and Seminole Casino Hotel Immokalee, both documented at 26.4106, -81.41646 with an opened year of 2015, are also south and west of Daytona Beach.
This kind of north-south and east-west reading is often more useful than a single mileage figure when you are trying to understand regional placement. It tells you whether a venue lies up the coast, inland, or farther south within the state before you ever look at a route planner.
About the individual documented venues
Derby Lane is documented in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States, with publicly published reference sources also noting Weaver family ownership until 2025. The article does not go beyond those documented location and ownership notes.
Emerald Princess Casino is documented by name and coordinate only in the material used here. No room counts, gaming floor size, machine counts, table counts, prices, fees, or hours are documented for that venue in this article, so none are stated.
Palm Beach Kennel Club is documented in West Palm Beach, Florida. Immokalee and Seminole Casino Hotel Immokalee share the same documented coordinates in this material, and both carry the opened year 2015.
How to use this if your real question is travel planning
If you are deciding whether a venue is close enough to Daytona Beach for your purposes, the safest reading is comparative: Derby Lane and Emerald Princess are the nearest documented pairings listed here, while the other named venues in this article are farther away on a straight-line basis.
That does not tell you the usable route length, the best approach road, or the time required. To answer those parts, you need the venue name first and then a current map route from your own exact starting point.
If your intended destination is one of the named venues in the table, use its documented city or coordinates to verify you have the correct property before checking routes. This matters because aliases can overlap, and venue branding can change over time.
What to confirm before you go
Before travelling, confirm the exact venue name, its current address listing on the property’s own contact or location page, and whether the branding still matches the name used in older reference sources. Ownership and branding can change, and some entries here are aliases for the same place.
You should also confirm current opening status, hours, parking arrangements, and any age or entry policies on the venue’s own site or guest-services channel. Those are all changeable items, and this article does not publish live operating details.
If you are comparing options from Daytona Beach, use the straight-line table here only as a first-pass geography guide. Then check your own route with a map service, because road mileage will be longer than every straight-line figure shown above.
FAQ
What is the nearest documented casino to Daytona Beach in this article?
