I loved it at cocoa beach my brother lives there it’s paradise
oh my gosh I need to go! thanks for another great video!
Great Video.
Excellent video! We love the Space Coast. My aunt had a condo in Melbourne for years. We just love this area and love the east coast. Thank you for showcasing this area very well done sir!
Resident of 11 years. One of the best decisions I’ve made.
If you’re considering a move to Florida, it’s important to know it’s a summer state. Just like the dark, freezing hellscape of February in Boston, August is brutally hot and requires you to know how to handle it. First, lose those extra pounds—i pray I don’t need to explain why losing weight is good for you. Second, clean your house—standing water in potholes or empty plastic will breed mosquitoes, which suck; Listerine is a great repellent. Buy a boat in the winter—if you managed the first two with excellence, make friends with fishing boats and spend at least one year researching boats. If your wife/hubbie owes you a favor, remind them that 45 miles east of Florida is the Bahamas—where you two can drive the boat and camp on uninhabited islands for the weekend.
awesome video, really well done and informative
the Wordsmith! nice job – as usual!
At Kennedy Space Center they have a wonderful 45 minute bus tour with narration. It takes you around the Vehicle Assembly Building where the Saturn Rocket and Space Shuttle were Assembled. It also takes you around the 2 Launch pads 39A (SpaceX now resides) and 39B and then drops you off at the Apollo Center its a beautiful tour and they also have up close and personal tours (cost a little extra) but worth it!
Hey bud I have 4 restaurants in leesburg Florida if you cate to stop by I’d love to get to talk to you I love all of your videos. The Pint Size Pub on 5th street and downtown, Main Street Cantina downtown, The Brick & Barrel Downtown and Mammoth Oak Brewing Company on Perkins and 441. Send me an email or a message ac_mix@live.com 🙂
Best video so far in my eyes
I appreciate your work its all awesome and would like to know how you or any one who wants to respond compare the melbourne area vs cape coral, that you’ve done, for full time living ….I do hear about red tide on the gulf side is that as big of an issue most of the time there
Good info, I am grateful to you for that.
What another great video…. thanks for taking the time to put this together. Great to see the Space Station and Coco beach. Ohrah!..
Thank you for filming my space coast! Some things I feel you missed on
1. The Cocoa Beach parking has side slips that run $2.50 per hour…..that is if you are lucky to get one. Screw $15 lol
2. @ 21:46 you are actually filming the Space X fairing catcher boat to receive its fallen nose cones from space.
3. You missed a damn good fish restaurant just next door to the sunset place you ate in Cocoa Beach. Its called Florida’s Seafood. The Blackened Mahi Mahi was exponential
4. Cocoa Beach has a parking secret. Lori Wilson park has free parking
5. No mention of I Dream of Jeannie Lane? Here you can park free and head to a boardwalk
I moved to Tampa from Melbourne / Cocoa Beach. Tampa waaaay better.
I am moving here next week, thanks for the great video! Super excited!
THANK YOU! I’ve lived here in Satellite Beach for 12 years and didn’t know half this stuff.
Wow! Really awesome video! Really enjoyed this one.
Great video man!!!!
Really enjoyed this one!
You should do the Jersey Shore in summertime focusing in on the Cape May and Wildwoods area.
been there many times. always have a great time.
Best video I have seen on the Space coast in a long time ….Very informative ..well done . Do more.
Just love all your videos, having lived on the East coast 95% of my life. Question: Bella a great addition to your videos. Is she just eye candy for all us doggy lovers, and when does she ever get to enjoy some of the flavorful fair you tease us with? Have a great Florida coast day!!!
Fantastic! You just showed us so many new places to magnet fish and explore ! Thank you!
I went to school with Dustin Schrage. RIP Buddy.
Invest in Florida entertainment palace of the world. Enjoy the land of the rich. Money is the ticket here all others stay away!
Anybody know the "swimming in sunshine" song used in this video?
By far the best and most comprehensive Florida vids. I watch every weekend. Thank you! Tim
What a great video of the space coast!!! We had to watch it twice.
Just watched this, have been to Space Center and along the coast…fantastic video as usual, awaiting Fort Lauderdale..
This was fantastic thank you so much, we still can’t travel so to be able to travel virtually and to see the sights I love with you is a joy! Bella is so well behaved, she is just gorgeous☺️
Had I known you were going here, I would have recommended The Skinny Mermaid in Cocoa Beach!
Space coast is my home …
Makes me want to buy a BMW M5 so I can blast up to the space coast from Jupiter. Gosh I love Florida…
Forgot to mention that Melbourne is the birthplace of the one and only "Lizard King" Jim Morrison of The Doors
That was a excellent video. Well done. Thanks.
