Cocoa Beach on the Atlantic (2 hours) and Mansota Key (2/1/2 hours) on the Gulf side. Cocoa Beach, excellent restaurants, good surf (Surfing tournaments)home of Ron Jon’s surf shop. “i dream of Jeannie” filmed on Cocoa Beach if you’re old enough to remember that sitcom. You might also get to watch a space launch while at Cocoa Beach. Port Canaveral with restaurants and cruise ships are right there by Cocoa Beach. Kill two birds with one trip!
If you are looking for an old Florida Secluded beach with fewer people then Manasoda Key is for you. Some nice Ma Pa restaurants. Shark tooth capital stretches from Venice beach down to Manasoda key Beach.
