Beaches
Over 100 of the best surfing spots on the East Coast can be found right here on Florida's Space Coast. With the longest beach in the State and three of "Florida's Ten Best Beaches," as declared by Southern Living, our area offers a distinct beach getaway, which can be tailor made for any interest. Whether its kayaking at the break of dawn, soaring over the crowds on a parasail, skipping the waves on a boogie board or just soaking up some rays.
Surfing
The Space Coast is great for an extended surf trip or for a day of surfing. Pros and grommets will always find a killer spot on our 72 miles of beaches. From Cocoa Beach to Sebastian Inlet take your pick. You can surf in near isolation off 72 miles of beautiful pristine beaches. Or if you are not intimidated by the crowd, check out 1st peak at the Inlet or 2nd light at Patrick Air Force Base.
