Description
While the first settlers arrived at Central Florida's east coast in the late 1860s, it took another 65 years before the City of Cocoa Beach was established by Gus Edwards. Although Cocoa Beach is just south of Kennedy Space Center, it took a television sitcom to acquaint the remainder of America with the Space Coast. "I Dream of Jeannie" ran from 1965 to 1970.
Here the Cocoa Beach Pier lights up the night, casting a warm glow over the ocean waters of the Atlantic. The pier is the site for the 2nd oldest surfing contest in America. The 50 year old competition draws over 300 amateur and pro surfers from all over the world.
