A beach is a beach when you live near one. To me there is nothing absolutely breathtaking about this beach. However, don't take it the wrong way. I still love the beach when I want to go to the beach. Luckily I know people that live near the beach so we park at their place and walk down to the beach. I've grown a very nice seashell collection from this beach. There are a few spots here and there along the beach that also great for a hangout if you want to be near the beach. Just beware of the parking meters if you don't know people who live in the area. read more

Nice service & yummy food. The venue is pretty & welcoming. The food although on the pricey side was good. There were flies giving us a hard time ( we sat outside) so definitely they need to provide those fly fans to keep them away & add a moscato wine on their drink menu for those who like ( me ) sweeter wine . read more

What a wonderful beach! My family visited Indialantic Beach in May 2021. Parking is metered and the meters accept card. There are outside showers as well as bathrooms. There's a boardwalk nearby but my family and I didn't get a chance to walk on it except the path to the beach. There is also a playground. Overall, a nice spot to spend a few hours on Florida's east coast! read more

we have many beautiful beaches here in Brevard County and especially in Indiatlanic and Melborne Beach. a taxpayer and resident of Brevard I own property in. Indiatlantic. I believe for the taxpayers of Brevard parking should be free. I understand it is expensive to maintain the beaches. I am disappointed in the fact that our beaches are not groomed better. often seaweed which causes an unpleasant odor while sitting at the beaches. In my 72 years of life, I've been to many beaches in Florida. Most of the public beaches are much cleaner than this area. They are maintained on a daily basis by being racked. Just an observation. read more

Great place for morning walks, watching the sunrise. The birds are good here for photographers.

Short boardwalk, small beach, good waves. Parking is not feed be ready to feed the meter. Also be aware this is a one-way road. DO NOT attempt to turn around. There is a park with a nice kids playground right in this same area. This beach often times does become crowded. NO big deal thou. At the right time of year, you may find nesting Sea Turtles. read more

Indialantic Boardwalk and Seashore - Beaches Near Me - Indialantic, Florida

This beach is beautiful! It is an easy drive over the bridge, and then you just keep driving until you come to a parking lot, and park! You have to feed the meter, and it is 1.00 per hour, but you literally are ON the beach. It is SO easy and convenient, if you just want to stay for 15 minutes, or 4 hours, feed the meter and enjoy. The beach itself is pristine, and one of the prettiest beaches I have ever been to. There are garbage cans placed throughout so disposing of any trash is easy. There is also a Wendy's close by, as well as other cute stores and food places. Love this quaint area. read more

Went for the day. We parked at Jame Nance Park. You have to pay for parking. There is a small playground, restrooms, and showers. The beach is nice, clean, and lots of shells. We enjoyed it. read more

Central Florida has some of the best surfing beaches in our state and when the swell is giving ill gladly make the trip up north for a more organic, simple, earthier, and relaxed oceanfront. If you arrive early, there's plenty of oceanfront parking spots available along with showers, restrooms, and the scenic wooden boardwalk. It's more of a sleepy beach town but it's warm waters attract locals and tourists alike to come and soak in the salty Atlantic we all have grown to live. It's much less populated that all of southern Florida's beaches which allows for a tranquil and rejuvenating experience overall. I recently found out that an annual parking pass here is quite economic and easy to obtain as well. The boardwalk is a great spot to jog or briskly walk with am incomparable view. read more

Indialantic Boardwalk and Seashore - Beaches Near Me - Indialantic, Florida

No shirt, no shoes, no problems. There is nothing like a few days at the beach to set the world right. I can't understand how anyone can complain about a beach this beautiful. No calls, no computer, no meetings. Sand on your feet, sun on your head, nothing on your mind except ... nothing. The biggest decision involves what to do this afternoon: Read? Walk on the beach? Swim in the ocean? Nap? All of the above? People come here for the beach in its most basic sense--that wonderful place where the land meets the sea and the sea reaches out to the sky. The approach is simple: Sit down and enjoy it. This town's name is a portmanteau derived from the town's location between the Indian River Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean. Indialantic offers many recreational opportunities for everyone. On any given day you'll see surfers, swimmers, sun bathers, runners, walkers and bicyclists enjoying this recreational resource. read more

The beach is beautiful, I come here often since it's the closest and cleanest beach near me. Unfortunately, we got a parking ticket for an "expired meter" but we got here at exactly 2:05pm and the time the ticket was given was at 2:30. We paid for 4 hours (until 6:05) on the app and by the time we got back to the car to leave, our time wasn't even over yet. The fine is $20. This is the first time this has happened. Officer #50 is the one who wrongfully gave us the ticket. read more

Our favorite beach. Never over crowded. Nearby shops and restaurants. Showers & bathroom available. Playground. Parking meters that now take cards! I used to always forget to bring change. read more

Nice beach and area. On a cloudy, prestorm day we made our way over to catch some waves one last time before ending our vacation. Plenty of beach space to set up shop and miles of waves to call your own. The parking lot includes bathrooms and showers...key for those not staying on the actual beach. Cheers! read more

I prefer coming to the Melbourne Beach-Indialantic Boardwalk since it is less crowded than the other popular beaches in the Atlantic coastal regions of Central Florida. It's a pretty clean beach, their some restaurants on the location of the boardwalk if you need a bite to eat or need to use the bathroom facility. They are coin taking parking meters on the boardwalk too, so make sure you set your personal timer to prevent getting a ticket from local law enforcement officers. The waves are rough, but acceptable for surfers or boogie boarders. read more

This may be the last beach around here that gives you that chilled out "beach bum" feeling. Thankfully, the beach and boardwalk area has survived the condo boom that inflicted other beaches north of here, nicely retaining its true boardwalk feel. Tons of parking is available and a variety of restaurants (from Wendy's to local eateries) are just steps away as well. read more

Quite literally the ONLY beachtown in the area that meters beach parking. Sure this is sour grapes and "ya just pay the meter" but come on for F's sakes. By the way, the parking ticket fine is $20 aaaand a $2.95 convenience fee if you pay online with a Credit Card. There, that's something you know now. Once you hit A1A from 192, go North or South for awhile till you get to a beach access without metered parking. There's plenty. Recommend Ocean Park or Spessard Holland South, or Paradise Beach Park North. Only a couple minutes more drive and no meters. read more

It's a nice beach, but we got onto the beach about noon and there was trash and blankets left over from the evening before, which is yukky. I would think the city would at least have someone in by noon to clean up the trash. Oh, well. It was a nice day anyway. More of a local beach. Parking meters are coin-operated and it's $1/hr. read more

This is one of the few beaches beachside that has a parking lot open past sunset. You do have to keep feeding the meters, but parking here is open until 1:30am. I like to dub this place lover's lane, since that's pretty much the crowd you see here past 9pm, but everyone still keeps it clean. There are some eating establishments nearby, like Wendy's or Bizarro's Pizza, and parking is fairly decent during the off-months. read more

In my opinion Indialantic offers the best beaches in Brevard County. They are uncrowded with nice sand and cooling sea breezes most afternoons. The mornings at sunrise are especially lovely and special (if you are a morning person) allowing one to reflect on the days ahead. ------------------------------------------------ Chasin' Indialantic Rainbows As I ambled along the sands of Indialantic-by-the-Sea the winter sun slowly warmed my thoughts to a gentle simmer patiently I awaited the revelation destined for me if I could bide its time ... Yes, there it emerges now, a wondrous sight ... a rainbow arched over my track beautifully and symmetrically formed breath taking in its parabolic perfection I jogged steadily towards the illusion being very careful to not change my pace as I knew that a touch too fast with impatience or a bit too slow with feigned indifference would shatter the image ahead ... What lies beyond my rainbow I muse... I cautiously approached the spectrally coloured bands nearly close enough to caress the misty phenomena to soak my soul within its secret knowledge ... I cautiously await the unknowns to be revealed then just as I perceived approval to break on through Poof! Out of my grasp again the silent wispy bands dissolved into their own space just close enough to tease me with an undiscovered insight ... I sighed my daily sigh then turned my back on the meaning of life ... read more

Best leave before 3 to 4 pm, or get caught in the rain. Typical Florida. I grew up on the Gulf coast of Florida, so all the beaches I visit are compared to that standard. During the hot summer months, the Atlantic feels great, but as you get closer to the "winter" months of Florida, I'd rather just soak my feet on the beach, but only if I feel like feeling cold. The sand is dirty IMO. I'm use to white sandy beaches. My friends all love it, but they're from the New England and they don't really have any beaches. I guess it's a matter of perspective, but for me, it's alright. Good, cheap place to clear my thoughts. read more

Absolutely loved the beaches here in Melbourne!!! When I out my feet into he water... It felt like was in a warm bath.

Although I'm not a Florida native, I love Florida beaches, just not too fond of this one. I'm used to clear and warm water. Unfortunately, the water here was dirty and I wasn't even trying to go in. Besides, my boyfriend isn't much of a beach person anyway. We just walked along the shore watching the seagulls bob for treats swept up by the tide. Overall, it was a nice way to spend a quick hour on a lazy Saturday. read more

There is nothing like starting the day off by walking along these beautiful beaches. This community has friendly residents that often greet you with a smile during their morning runs, rides or as they relax watching sunrises. read more

Choice spot. Would be better with a bigger boardwalk, more restaurants, shopping, more like Vero, i.e., less condos, it is really quaint and nice though. read more

Spent $2,000 for my vacation and could not enjoy the beach. The sand was as hot as fire! It was also hard to walk in as the only hard packed sand was right at the water. The ocean is very deep immediately with no shallow area to walk out into. The waves were rough and crashing right onto shore instead of lapping. There had been a recent tropical storm way off but that sent tons of seaweed into shore. There is a great area of seaweed that is off shore about 100 miles and when there is any disturbance tons of seaweed is sent in to shore. Fishing was a mess for my husband due to the seaweed. I won't go back to Indiatlantic Beach. I could have spent less on the west coast and had a beautiful, cool sand beach with no seaweed. read more

I'm not sure where the negative reviews are coming from as this is easily one of the best beaches in Central Florida. It's clean, has nice facilities and restaurants/shops walking distance from the beach so you don't have to move your car once parked. There's no sketchy "driving on the beach" or the skeevy cut-off jean wearing/neck tattoo-types like you'll find at Volusia County beaches... so it scores in my book. read more

Clean city & beach but public bathrooms on Boardwalk were unsanitary & disgusting, otherwise would have been 4-5 stars. Good pizza & icecream places nearby with better bathrooms. No driving on the beach, metered parking lot. read more
