Beautiful wide beaches, a variety of restaurants, great public schools, a hopping nightlife, and friendly neighbors are just a few of the things that Cocoa Beach has to offer! It’s not often you can find a small town with so many amenities.

There’s always something unique going on in Cocoa Beach. It’s not everywhere you can watch an astronaut parade, a surfing santa contest, a sea turtle release, offshore boat racing, a dog surfing championship, an airshow while wading in the ocean, and an “I Dream of Jeanie” themed marathon! And on a regular basis locals enjoy listening to a wide variety of great musicians at the many indoor and outdoor pubs and restaurants, including ones right on the beach or the Banana River. On such a narrow island watching sunrises and sunsets are just steps apart.

If you don’t like homeowners’ associations (HOAs), Cocoa Beach neighborhoods might be appealing to you. With only a handful of exceptions, Cocoa Beach homes (single-family) are not in HOAs. This is because Cocoa Beach was primarily developed in the 1960’s before HOAs were a thing. But don’t worry about the neighborhoods looking trashy, the City of Cocoa Beach makes up for the lack of HOA’s with comprehensive city ordinances ensuring that no one’s front yard looks unsightly.

Despite much of the town being developed without HOAs, there are still a good variety of Cocoa Beach living options. You can live on a canal or directly on the Banana River; and boat, kayak and fish from your backyard. Or buy one of the Cocoa Beach oceanfront condos and live a maintenance free lifestyle with a view of the sunrise from your balcony. South Cocoa Beach is especially narrow and offers riverfront and oceanfront condos with both sunrise and sunset views. And if you are looking for something more affordable, you can get a condo without a view that is still only steps to the beach.

Does the Cocoa Beach lifestyle sound good to you? If so, consider moving to Cocoa Beach, and discover what it’s like to live where other people vacation!
