Cocoa Beach is renowned worldwide as one of the most family-friendly destinations. However, beyond its reputation for sun and fun with the many attractions, this vibrant city holds a captivating historical narrative, shaping this thriving community.

Cocoa Beach carries significant historical significance, tracing back to the early 16th century. Spanish settlers christened the nearby Cape Canaveral upon their arrival in 1513. However, it was incorporated as a city in 1957, Cocoa Beach, after being founded in 1925. During the late 1950s and 1960s, it earned the moniker "Missile Town, USA" due to its proximity to Cape Canaveral.

Cocoa Beach gained additional fame as the setting for the beloved television series "I Dream of Jeannie." While most of the filming occurred in California, an episode featuring a wedding was filmed on-site, and the show's main character, Major Nelson, had a home in Cocoa Beach.

There is an array of exciting activities to suit every interest throughout Cocoa Beach, which prides itself on its unique access to land, sea, and air while boasting excellent shopping, dining, and historical attractions.
