Updated: January 9, 2023. With some beaches, you have a long, not walk to reach the water. Even worse, you are exhausted after carrying all your gear. Not in Vero Beach. Everything is close to the beach. This park is just 15 minutes from Disney's Vero Beach Resort.
 Cocoa Beach VIBE: Active, Busy Beach 1500 N Atlantic Ave, Cocoa Beach, FL 32931 It can be chilly in central Florida in January. The best way to warm up is to head for the coast where the weather is fine. We took a short drive down the east coast to Lori Wilson Park in Cocoa Beach.

The jetty is still closed. Ever wished you could find a Florida beach away from the crowds that's your own special place? Ponce Inlet is one of those beach towns the locals don't want you to know about!
Smyrna Dunes Park walkway

After the hurricane on our Florida beach
It's been four days since Hurricane Ian departed our area of Florida and we are profoundly grateful to still be here. We watched the progress of Hurricane Ian and knew after it crossed Cuba that our area, near Daytona Beach Shores, was going to be in it's direct path after landfall.
