This park is full of history and is a great place to walk, enjoy a sunset, or the occasional festival such as Founders' Day. Melbourne Beach does a great job maintaining this beautiful little spot for all to enjoy.

Barrier Island Center was a great place for viewing sea turtles. The center is well kept and all the people are very nice. There is also a nice wildlife sanctuary right across A1A. This is a family-friendly place.

This trail is AWESOME! Nice and quiet with winding trails through the mangroves and natural Florida woods. Plenty of native plants, flowers and trees as well as a wide variety of wildlife! Definitely going back again!

Off A1A and south of Melbourne, FL on the way to Sebastian, this city park is situated on the beach. First off, there is plenty of parking. Second, clean and well appointed bathrooms allows for a shower and bathing suit changes. Third, outdoor showers to rinse sand as salt from everything. Then you get to the boardwalk. Nice, broad wooden ramp to allow wheelchairs, fishing carts etc., access to the beach without hassle. And the view is just stunning when the sun is up. You can clearly see different shades of green and blue water with birds all over the place. Hungry? No problem. "Billy's" mobile eatery serves excellent food right there. We have yet to see the beach dirty. It is a safe environment for families with a few gazebo's to rent for a special event. Hats off to the city's Parks Department!
