It was clean and family friendly. We also enjoyed the fact that it was not crowded this time of year. More

I live here and it is like being in heaven every day. Beautiful, fun and friendly. Love the water, both ocean and rivers. Fishing, beaches, boats, casinso boat, birds, dophins, manatees. I would never leave here. Nothing else makes me feel so relaxed. My kids visit and all they talk about is wanting to move here. More

Probably a great place to stay before and after a cruise. I didn't find many things to be close or convenient-too many souvenir shops in the main tourist area selling the exact same things. Ron Jon's was a high point. Restaurants were handy and convenient but packed on weekends-there was not much else happening. The pier was a huge let... More

I visited this beach with my daughter and 21 month old grandson. This beach is perfect for young children. The beach is very wide and has a large expansive area of flat harder sand leading to the water. Then the water is very shallow for quite a ways into the ocean. The waves on my visit were fairly calm yet... More

Cocoa Beach is blessed with pretty beaches. Not so the parking for visitors; bring tons of quarters and a stop watch, You have to feed the hungry meters all day. And whatever you do, don't try to drive to the beach walk and pick up your Grandmother or toddler. If a wonderful city meter cop sees you, you will get... More

This is a very nice beach. The water is warm and the beach relatively clean depending on location. It's good for walking along as the sun sets, and there are some absolutely beautiful sunsets as well as sunrises along this stretch of beach. We actually saw a dolphin jumping out of the water and playing in the waves as we... More

They had chair and umbrella rentals and even tent cabans, right on the beach which made for a perfect day. I little pricy. We were there for only a few hours. The water was nice and the ocean is pretty shallow for children to play. More

The beach is nice and we picked a time of year when it wasn't very crowded ! We loved digging in the sand and playing in the mud . We enjoyed walking along the beach and placing our feet in the water. We found some pretty good sea shells! More

Coasted on the east side of mainland Cocoa and Merritt Island, this unique and busy strip of land offers a beautiful beach scape and chain of family owned restaurants and shops. Take heed, Atlantic Avenue is not good for walking most of the shops need some sort of transportation to get to. If your lucky, towards the end of November... More
