Located
on a barrier island, nestled between the great Atlantic Ocean
and the Banana River Lagoon on Florida's Central East Coast,
Cocoa Beach continues to link the birth of the Space Age with
the wonders of the future.
Just six miles long, and mostly less than one mile wide, Cocoa
Beach is truly a unique place! Where else can you choose between
watching a space launch from the beach or precious animal
species in their natural habitat? You can swim in the ocean,
take a quiet kayak exploration off the Banana River islands
from our river shore, play a round of golf at the 27-holes
golf course, surf cast from the beach for dinner, or just
enjoy a day at the beach where you will likely see dolphins
at play or be lucky enough to see an occasional whale in migration.
Widely known as the surfing capital of the East Coast, Cocoa
Beach is the hometown of surfing champions.
The primary attraction to Cocoa Beach is the weather. With
its coastal location and positioned where two climatic zones
(sub-tropic and temperate) meet, the weather usually avoids
extremes. This unique location attracts wildlife indigenous
to both climatic zones, as well as coastal and migratory species.
