Alan Shepard Park
Shepard Park is a 5-acre, ocean-front park providing picnic, shower, and restroom facilities for guests. The park was named after astronaut
Alan Shepard and provides an excellent view of space launches. Facilities include 10 large picnic pavilions,
several smaller covered picnic tables and a bathhouse. More than 300 parking spaces are available for automobiles and recreational vehicles. Many popular tourist related retail shops are within easy walking distance.
The nice thing about this part is that it is in central Cocoa Beach, close to everything. Ron Jon Surf Shop (worth visiting) is close.
The bad part is... that it's close to everthing, and pretty busy.
