Cocoa Beach Country Club

If you are looking for a great golf course that has three nine hole courses you may want to check out Cocoa Beach Country Club. It is located on a peninsula which is surrounded by the Banana River Lagoon at the western end on a Minutemen Causeway in Cocoa Beach. This is also a great place to come because of all the different types of birds here and it's a sanctuary for the wildlife here. Cocoa Beach Country Club is located at 5000 Tom Warner Boulevard, off Minutemen Causeway, Cocoa Beach, Florida 32932.

Pine Island

Pine Island is one of my favorite Florida spots to go. It has a very nice beach where you can kick back and relax, watch the occasional pod of dolphins swim by or even cast a fishing line in to test your fishing skills. If the sun gets too hot go for a swim along the nice beach area. Pine Island also has a cafe where you can get anything from sandwiches, hot food, ice cream as well as hot and cold drinks. There are also vending machines by the cafe for after-hours needs. If the kids don't want to go swimming anymore, not to worry, there is a playground area for them. For those who like to bbq, they have covered and non-covered picnic benches with available permanent grills. For me, the best part about Pine Island are the spectacular sunsets right off the Gulf of Mexico. If your looking for a great restaurant, Bayport Inn is a seafood and steak restaurant. It is located at 4385 Courtez Blvd in Spring Hill, about half a mile from Pine Island. It has indoor and outdoor dining. I like to sit outside on the patio and enjoy the view of the gulf when the sun is setting. I do recommend their grouper basket. They also have a prime rib special on Thursday nights. Pine Island is located in Hernando County, at 10800 Pine Island Drive (off County Rd. 495 west of Weeki Wachee).
