If you’re planning to visit Cocoa Beach, the best time to go would actually not be during the peak of summer. There’s such a large amount of tourists at that time and the Florida sun makes peak summer almost unbearably hot. Early and late summer are best, and if you have some luck, some days in the Springtime are usually pleasantly warm allowing for swimming and sun tanning.

The best method of transport is of course with car, since you and your travel partners will have the freedom and flexibility to explore the area. You can fly to the nearest international airport in Melbourne, Florida which is just 21 miles from the center of Cocoa Beach. Orlando International is located about 50 miles away.
Once you get to Cocoa Beach, of course the first thing to do is jump in the water. Swimming is perfectly safe off the beach, and if there are any storms or undercurrents then warning is sufficiently given in advance to residents and tourists. Stop in the quaint city for some ice cream and don’t forget to bring a lot of suntan lotion!
