Melbourne Beach lies on a barrier island that stretches from Cape Canaveral to Sebastian Inlet. Whether you're seeking a beach house, a cosy oceanfront cabin with a fireplace, a luxurious holidya apartment, or a large family holiday home, you'll find it here.
Where to find the best waterfront dining
Most Melbourne Beach eateries are casual dining establishments. If you're celebrating a special occasion, two local establishments are popular: there's Café Coconut Cove, which specializes in European and Floridian meat dishes, and Djon's Steak and Lobster House, where you can listen to live music as you dig into prime steaks and local seafood on the riverfront.
Encounter the wild with your children
Barrier Island Sanctuary, a free venue, is open from Tuesday to Sunday. Learn about sea turtle conservancy and join a guided Sea Turtle Walk in June and July.
The kids will also love Melbourne Beach Pier, where you can rent fishing gear and buy bait. With a bit of luck, they can catch your next meal. For a more exotic outing, head to Brevard Zoo. Encounter birds, reptiles, and animals from five continents, or take part in kayak tours and zip line adventures.
Expand your horizons – become an explorer for a day
Relaxing in a waterfront Melbourne Beach holiday house sounds pretty idyllic, but you'll also want to get out and explore.
For some of the best wave action on the east coast, try Sebastian Inlet. It's just half an hour's drive south on SR-A1A. At the inlet, you can visit the McClarty Treasure Museum, surf, or relax on three miles of beachfront.
Space exploration more your style? Travel 75 minutes north via SR-A1A and I-95 to the Kennedy Space Center Visitor's Complex, where you can meet an astronaut, explore interactive displays, and experience a simulated shuttle launch.
