The Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, on the northern end of the Merritt Island peninsula, offers an unpopulated buffer area from the rocket launches at Kennedy Space Center. Because of Merritt Island’s location in proximity to the wildlife refuge, it offers one of the most diverse bird populations in the country, with over 365 different species of birds.
