This was our first trip to a nude beach (my wife and I) and won't be our last. We are in our mid 20s and didn't really know what to expect, but it was great! The beach is a little narrow and the sands just a bit difficult to walk. Everyone here is very respectful and in about 10 minutes... More

This beach is a nice little quiet beach, not crowded, clean, and safe. We went to the beach just to relax, little did we know, that the Manatee's hang out there! They were so neat to watch. Worth the stop on the road!

We spend a lot of time in the National Seashore beaches. Miles and miles of beach with no commercial development. We just went on pontoon boat ride of Mosquito Lagoon. Great Great Great. Jake the captain very knowledgeable SNF informative. Joyce, the first mate, very very good. You can sign up at Visitor Center.

Great quiet beach where you can get away from all the people, blaring radios and cigarettes. If you are descreet, you can get back to nature in more ways than one.

You have to pay ($5/car) to get into the National Seashore Park, but you will find absolutely beautiful beaches, with very few people. We almost always feels like it's our own personal beach.

Despite the rain and thunderstorms, this beach was truly stunning , amazing views, plus the ability to park on the beach for $5.00 all day, in good weather this beach would be a fantastic day out to chill out after doing theme parks for days. Plenty of restaurants/bars close to the/on beach and it was spotless, not a bit of... More

This is the northern end of the 24 mile long Canaveral National Seashore. The southern end is at Playlinda beach just north of the Kennedy Space Center. Being a national park there is no development so the beach and access to it is a natural as can be and usually not the crowds you get at a public beach. I... More
