Thought it would be nice to add a map of the beach area with a red star showing our location in reference to the island).
The green area at the top is Smyrna Dunes Park, 73 acres of pristine dunes with a dog friendly beach. This makes our "Dirk" dog very happy(no driving on this beach).
Lots of mangrove islands in the intracoastal waterway for fishing and kayaking.
The south end of the island becomes the Canaveral National Seashore, which is 8 miles of untouched beaches and dunes(no driving on this beach). South of that is Cape Canaveral (Cape Kennedy) and is restricted for NASA use.
The public beaches are hard packed which allows you to ride your bicycles on the beach (everywhere) and drive your cars in certain areas. Allowing the driving of cars on the public beach area creates a five mile beach front parking lot.
