The sun-bronzed beach sand works for sunbathing and sand castle making alike. Though its world renowned waves are a surfers paradise, they’re still calm enough that families and novice beachgoers are able to enjoy a swim or their first surf lesson. 

Of course we love the animals, but this zoo offers some unique experiences: giraffe and rhino encounters; kayaking tours; a train; paws on water area for young kids; an aquarium and zipline adventures making this zoo popular for toddlers, big kids and kids at heart (aka adults).

Provides the opportunity to learn about the space program in an interactive way: bus tour, experiences and self- or guided- tour options. 

Where else can you mini golf, mine for treasures and feed real alligators?! There are 2 mini golf courses to choose from that meander over ponds with real alligators hanging out around you (don’t worry, you’re on bridges with netting so it is safe)! You can also opt to feed baby gators and big ones, too and mine for “lost treasures.” 

Catch a show at one of the local theatres. Surfside Playhouse, Cocoa Village Playhouse or Titusville Playhouse. No, they’re not Broadway but do offer great local performances for audiences of all ages. 

Think indoor playground + enrichment in one. The Play Space is set up almost like a mini village with various play zones like a market, salon, school, etc. This is a fan favorite of our littlest guests.
