Aircraft X was VFR inbound to DAB. He was cleared to land Runway 25R. When I looked out the window; the aircraft appeared to be high and I was expecting a long landing. I was advised by an aircraft that was holding short of Runway 25R at an intersection that the aircraft on final appeared to be lined up for Taxiway November. I immediately issued go-around instructions for Aircraft X and had them climb out and enter a right downwind for Runway 25R. He then landed normally. This is a recurring problem at the DAB airport. The height of the Tower reduces the ability to judge if an aircraft is high or is actually lined up for a parallel taxiway. Additional markings on the parallel taxiways may also be helpful. Large taxiways being painted on the surface as is done at other airports could reduce this.
DAB Tower Controller reported sending an aircraft around due to it being lined up to land on a taxiway.
