While driving through the refuge you may see an alligator or even a variety of endangered species that find a safe home here. You will travel through a portion of the giant Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. Playalinda Beach is reached from the south access by taking CR402, also known as Garden Street, from Titusville east to the beach. Playalinda Beach: South Entrance to Canaveral National Seashore The paved portion of South Atlantic Avenue (SR-A1A) ends at the last ramp on the south in a turn around loop.
You can take steps or walk on a gently sloping wheel chair accessible ramp. Once you leave the visitor center and travel south, there are four more parking areas along Apollo Beach.Įach parking area has a ramp down to the beach. There are five parking areas on the ocean and four others within the coastal hammock. The road dead ended in fenced property that was the northern limit of Kennedy Space Center. One day I drove to the end of State Road A1A south of New Smyrna.
I dreamed of buying an oceanfront lot in New Smyrna Beach. I was living in Orlando in 1969 and working on the construction of Walt Disney World. My Personal Search for a Beachfront Paradise It's the way Florida used to be before wall to wall oceanfront condominiums and beach houses. This area north of the Cape probably looks the same today as it was back in the 1500s when the Spanish galleons sailed by in the Gulf Stream. It is amazing to see this so close to the launch pads at Kennedy Space Center on Cape Canaveral. It is a pristine undeveloped shoreline, one of the few remaining on the east coast of Florida. There's no other place on the state's Atlantic coast that has 24 miles of continuous undeveloped white sand beach on an unspoiled barrier island. You will see none of that at Canaveral National Seashore. The Space Coast and New Smyrna have miles of developed beach with high rise condominiums casting their shadows over State Road A1A. The beach is located between Kennedy Space Center and New Smyrna Beach. Miami, South Florida, and Keys within 100 miles.
