Planning Your Cocoa Beach Vacation
What you need to know before you go

Just an hour's drive east of Orlando, Cocoa Beach is the surfing capital of the east coast and home of the world famous Ron Jon Surf Shop.

But surfing is not all Cocoa Beach offers. It's been called the quintessential beach town, and is an affordable destination for those searching for sun, sand and the ocean. Cocoa Beach is a step back to an earlier time, before condos took over the beachfront, and is a family-friendly destination.

If you get tired of the beach, you can head on over to Port Canaveral to do some deep-sea fishing, or run on up to the Kennedy Space Center in Titusville to watch a shuttle launch.
