My family and I are fans of this beach. Although it is an hour ride from home, the ride is…read morecomfortable, barely any traffic and it is easy to get to. This beach is accessible & near to eateries, a CVS & small beach shops in case you forgot something, it comes in handy, since we forgot to get water. There is a small parking lot that can fill quickly if you don't arrive early enough. There is a clean bathroom. There is also a gazebo area with picnic tables and a grill. The sand is clean. The water blue and wonderful. We loved that it was not packed & that everyone was being cognizant of keeping their distance. We had an AMAZING time. We sunbathed for hours, listened to music, took in the view, the sun and slight breeze, undisturbed. Before we left, we planned our next visit. Great way to spend my mother's day.

Riding on A1A there is not too many free places anymore to access the beach besides just to sit and…read moreenjoy the view. While visiting Florida I just wanted to go spend a few minutes looking at the ocean and smell the air. This beach access is free and there is bathrooms too which makes it nice if you need to change for the beach. A nice boardwalk up to a deck area with a couple of picnic tables if you wanted to come eat and enjoy the beach view. It's under cover too which made it nice for my Mom who can't be in the sun long. This is a nice spot if your looking to sit off the beach. The only down fall was a "bum" sleeping on one of the picnic tables. That made it a bit uncomfortable while sitting there. A great spot for photos. I would for sure go back and get my ocean fix here. Plenty of parking.

We rented the space for a baby shower. It worked out great. I would highly recommend it.read more

I came here for my friends wedding and it is truly an ideal spot for a small-scale wedding with a…read morebeach theme. It's basically right on satellite beach short of a few yards. The building is adorable with a deck on the back that has a lovely beach view and us a great location for wedding pictures. There isn't much space though so having a caterer that works outside may be ideal as my friend did for her wedding. It has it's own private parking lot but it's not very big and some guests may have to park in the nearby beach lot. Overall, the place was cute and I'd recommend it mainly for small weddings. It could use a few renovations but that's about it.

Our stay at Beach Island Resort was excellent from beginning to end…read more The resort is located directly on the beach in Cocoa Beach, which made it easy to enjoy the ocean throughout the day. We stayed in a two-bedroom unit, and it felt much more like a beach cottage or apartment than a traditional hotel room. The space included a full kitchen, a comfortable living area, and separate bedrooms and bathrooms, which made it ideal for relaxing and spreading out. The property was quiet, clean, and well maintained. Having a full kitchen and multiple bedrooms made the stay especially convenient and comfortable, and it worked perfectly for our group. Penny, who manages the resort, was a pleasure to work with. She was friendly, responsive, and clearly takes pride in the property. Her attention and professionalism really stood out and added to the overall experience. If you're looking for a beachfront hotel in Cocoa Beach with two-bedroom accommodations, full kitchens, and a more laid-back feel than large resorts, this is a great option. It's a wonderful choice for families or anyone wanting more space right on the beach. We would definitely stay here again. -- Charlie I.

A Perfect Beach Getaway!…read more Beach Island Resort truly makes the most of its space, and has absolutely everything you need for a relaxing and convenient stay! They have a fully equipped BBQ area, with a large patio, tables, chairs, and all the grilling accessories you could need! They have a picnic/lounge area with an ocean view!

I can honestly say that the resort goes above and beyond to add so many thoughtful touches like menus for all the local eateries, books, games, and a beautiful breeze way with a beautiful and comfy seating area. It has a heated private pool, a private hot tub, and direct private beach access. Plus, every beach amenity you could need! Penny, is the on-site manager, is available 24/7 and was always ready to help in anyway she could and answer any questions we had!

The beach gets its name from its proximity to historic military aircraft hangars. The area has a lot of military history. What is now Patrick Space Force Base was originally established as Naval Air Station Banana River in 1939 as an anti-submarine patrol and training base. During World War II, this stretch of coastline was actively patrolled to guard against the threat of German U-boats operating off the Atlantic coast. Today this secluded, uncrowded strip of coastline is known for its great surfing conditions and excellent vantage point for viewing Cape Canaveral rocket launches. Beach amenities include an observation deck, wheelchair-accessible dune crossover, and outdoor shower. The planes from Patrick Space Force Base approach from just north of Hangars Beach, giving people on this beach a great view.

During the Air Show dates in mid April, you can enjoy the dozens of planes that fly around the area. The easiest way to get here is to drive north on A1A from SR404 since the free parking lot is right on your right..if you are coming from Cocoa Beach, you can get in the median and drive over to the beach side for parking. A really nice, unspoiled beach....not too busy as some of the other ones closer to Cocoa Beach downtown.

This is Spessard Holland North Beach Park. Two miles away is Spessard Holland South Beach Park…read more Both beach parks and the Spessard Holland Golf course were named in honor of Spessard Lindsey Holland, a prominent Florida politician and lawyer. He served as the 28th Governor of Florida and later as a U.S. Senator from 1946 to 1971. The beach park and golf course are among a number of places named in his honor across the state. Beyond the beach and park in Melbourne, his name is attached to various locations, including the Spessard Holland Expressway in Orlando and the Spessard Holland Elementary School in his hometown of Bartow. This 6.5-acre community beach park is a lovely spot to enjoy the ocean In Melbourne Beach. The beach is monitored by seasonal lifeguards. This park is popular with beachgoers and those who enjoy surf fishing and surfing. The park has a 100 foot dune boardwalk and two small pavilions. Other amenities include restrooms, drinking fountain, and outdoor showers. I always appreciate a beach with free parking like this one.
