Cocoa Beach History

Cocoa Beach was put on the map during the 1960's due to the United States space program and the space age. NASA's Kennedy Space Center is located approximately 14 miles north of the area, to the south is Patrick Air Force Base and the 45th Space Wing. Also located here is SpaceX. The city of Cocoa Beach became home to many young families where either one or both mother and father worked on some angle of the space program. Even to this day there are numerous people living in the area that have contributed to the history of the space program.

One of the major things the city is also famous for is that Cocoa Beach was the setting for the 1960's TV show "I Dream of Jeannie". Along with this it is also a place for spring break, local beach goers, family vacations and holidays along with surfing. Of course one of the major attractions is of course the saltwater sport fishing. Including sight fishing the flats of the Mosquito Lagoon, Ponce Inlet, Banana River and Indian River for giant redfish, trout, black drum or deep sea fishing and near shore fishing out of Port Canaveral for cobia, tarpon, triple tail, snapper, kingfish, grouper, barracuda, shark and snook. Cocoa Beach offers a year round event of flats fishing, as is all of inshore saltwater fishing Florida. Also offering custom private manatee and dolphin scenic tours.
