Cocoa Beach beaches attract most tourists annually and continue till today. It is a great vacations spot regardless of age! The crowd at the pier is young and raucous, but a few feet north you can find a good spot to hang out. There are usually surfers here, who you can watch for fun. The old school nostalgia of the place is one of the reasons it’s still a hit with young and old alike!
