Our three public parks provide more recreational facilities than Florida's other 13 deepwater seaports combined. There is a park here to suit everyone's style, from 35-acre Jetty Park with its beach, campground and full range of activities to quiet 4-acre Rodney S. Ketcham Park.
In addition to our parks, a mile and a half of bike paths run, from the eastern boundary at Jetty Park through the Port. And note that all boat-launching ramps located within the Port are free and open to the public.
While you are visiting our beaches and parks, you may get the chance to see some of our protected species.
Jetty Park
Jetty Park is one of the most popular recreation spots in Brevard County. The park offers a 4.5 acre family beach with its designated areas for swimming and surfing, with lifeguards on duty year-round. One of the favorite features is the 1,200 foot Malcolm E. McLouth Fishing Pier - open during park hours - equipped with fish-cleaning tables, running water and is fully accessible to the physically challenged. Specially designed beach wheelchairs provide access to both the beach and pier.
*Operation of two wheeled electric personal assistive mobility devices in Jetty Park and Jetty Park Campground is prohibited, per FS 316.2068(5) and FS 316.003(83)
