7 Six miles of beach solidifies Cocoa Beach's reputation as "Surfing Capital of the East Coast" on this stretch of Florida's Space Coast, but 27 holes of golf on the Banana River, three oceanfront parks, easy public transportation, and the Thousand Islands Conservation Area make it a destination in itself. Only minutes from cruise line darling Port Canaveral, the famous Kennedy Space Center, BCC Planetarium, and the convenient Orlando Airport, this barrier island is no barrier at all when it comes to bringing families together just outside of Florida's self-dubbed "World's Most Famous Beach": Daytona Beach. Twenty-three miles of pristine white shorelines are the icing on the sugary-sand cake known as Daytona Beach, where sun worshippers are welcome 24/7 and "surf chairs" for the disabled make sure that nobody misses out. Sweet family memories continue at the 12-acre Sugar Mill Botanical Garden and at Angell & Phelps Chocolate Factory, one of TripAdvisor's "Top Ten Sweetest Attractions in the U.S." If that's not enough to get engines revving, the Daytona International Speedway, host of one of the biggest races in NASCAR, provides a rush miles away from the Sand Blaster roller coaster of the famous boardwalk and nearby Main Street Pier.
