The Beach I’m most familiar with is Cocoa Beach which has many areas of access to the beach that are walk on free. However, parking your car in a beach park during a special event or driving your car onto the beach like at Daytona or New Smyrna there are fees. Parking your car at a beachside hotel is prohibited unless you are staying there. There is free parking near the access areas but during busy times they fill up. Like most things there is free and not so free.
