A few miles away in the heart of Cocoa Beach, this adorable little restaurant was converted from an old gas station. Don't be fooled from the outside, there is plenty of indoor space for dining as well as beautiful courtyard out back. Live music, outstanding, unique food, great drinks, chill vibes!

A Cocoa Beach legend. A little touristy, but still a cool place to chill and have drinks or food right on the beach!

Beach access
This is the closest public beach access to my home. You can walk there in under ten minutes, or drive there in a couple of minutes. Lots of public parking, but fills up quickly on weekends. If no open parking (do NOT park on grass or any other non-marked space), then go back out to the main Road (Ridgewood) and head southward (left). Each subsequent block has public beach access and limited free parking.

Fascinating science and history museum! A must see!
Shopping
Just in case you forgot your swimsuit, or just want to get out and peruse a little bit in the AC, I absolutely LOVE this place. It's unlike any typical Bealls Outlet. It's ginormous and they have a ton of good stuff from clothing to electronics, home goods and more! And fantastically cheap prices! Go on Monday and save 10% on your entire purchase.

Within my little neighborhood, Cops often hang out looking for speeders exceeding the 25 MPH limit. Mind your speed!
