Family Activities
The Space Coast has a perfect mix of activities and attractions for the entire family. From miles and miles of uncrowded beaches, to digging for fossils at the Dinosaur Store, racing each other at Andretti Thrill Park, zipping through the Florida Outback 55 feet in the air, taking a helicopter ride at the American Police Hall of Fame & Museum, feeding a giraffe at the Brevard Zoo and learning how to fly the space shuttle. No matter how old you are, Florida's Space Coast can fulfill the dreams of everyone's inner child.
