Cocoa Beach offers a laid-back mix of beach fun, nature, and local attractions, making it great for a day trip or a longer stay. You can relax or surf along its wide sandy beaches, stroll or grab a drink on the iconic Cocoa Beach Pier, or enjoy beachfront parks like Lori Wilson Park. For nature lovers, kayaking or paddleboarding on the Banana River lets you spot dolphins and manatees, while boat tours offer easy wildlife viewing. The area also has fun stops like the Dinosaur Store, escape rooms, and aerial adventure parks for families. Just a short drive away, the Kennedy Space Center adds a unique Space Coast experience, and if you’re lucky, you might even see a rocket launch from the beach. The town rounds it out with casual seafood spots, bars with live music, and beautiful sunrise and sunset views over the ocean.
