Beach Vacations

Cocoa Beach, located on the central east coast of Florida, is a playground that is full of water activities, historical attractions, and amazing restaurants. You can participate in any of numerous activities while visiting the land of sun and sand, but the beach and the water are bound to be the biggest attractions for any city that lies near the Atlantic Ocean. Make your way to Cocoa Beach for an exciting vacation with the family, and you will never want to leave the great times that abound in this area.

While its name would suggest a great amount of sand in this area, the shoreline of Cocoa Beach is only six miles long and approximately one mile wide. This small beach offers some of the best surfing on the East Coast and you can catch talented individuals showing off their skills throughout the day. So stake out your place on the beach early and settle in for an entertaining day near the water and under the sun.

When most individuals head to the coast, they imagine deep sea fishing on a charter boat along with the seasickness that comes along with heading out into the ocean. Here, however, you can avoid getting wet or nauseous by heading to Cocoa Beach Pier. There are hundreds of square miles of waterways around Cocoa Beach, including Port Canaveral, the Indian River Lagoon, and Banana River Lagoon, each offering breathtaking views and ample opportunity to catch the fish of a lifetime. Any surfer in your family will enjoy the interactive exhibits that detail the history of the sport with old surfboards, photos, and magazines. For more mainstream history, make your way to nearby Cape Canaveral for the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.
