jrbdad 3 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Wanting to find place to park near beach ( anywhere in Florida that would be on our way up or down 95 to the fort). Thinking it would be nice for Wife and kids to spend a few minutes on the beach. With 36ft travel trailer driving around to find a place isn't a option!!

Cortezcapt (Derek) 156 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Anastasia state park in St Augustine has a campground so I would guess probably some where to park a tt to see the beach Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Travisma 1,317 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Check Google maps for larger stores along A1A where you could pull in and walk to the beach. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cortezcapt (Derek) 156 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 I'm assuming you'll be getting off 95 onto 4, but if you continue down 95 there are several beach parking lots as well as a walmart and several large shopping areas that are right across A1A from the beach between Cape Canaveral and Indialantic. You can take 192 out of Indialantic right into WDW. There is a fairly large beach parking lot right at 192 and A1A. May be to far out of the way though.

Avatab.... Steve 124 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Not sure what the policy is for trailers but you can drive your car/truck right on the beach at Daytona. You can get on from A1A at one end, spend a couple of hours going to the other end and then continue your journey. Or, leave the trailer and hop out on the beach. There's always something going on along the beach road and you can park along the way, stopping to get something to eat and drink, get out a beach chair and relax for a little while. On busy days it's crazy but still fun, on quiet days it's a beautiful drive and something you can't do most everywhere else http://www.daytonabeach.com/things-to-do/the-beach/driving/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

articfox676 11 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 second the Jetty Park Time it right and you can wave to cruise ships going out. Who knows you may even see Mickey & Minnie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FEARtheEERS 18 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 We always come down 95 and visit Cape Canaveral/Cocoa Beach before we head over to Disney. We really do not enjoy I4. We like to go 192 over to the Fort. If you want to actually camp at Jetty Park, make sure you reserve in advance. If you want to just drive over to check things out, you do have to pay to get in for a bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jrbdad 3 Posted February 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 If we are not camping but just want to park for hour or two is that ok at Jetty Park? Thank you for all the ideas. Looking at doing this when we leave the fort. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Yep, I think the non county resident fee is $10.00. You may have to park in the over-flow, but its still a fairly short walk to the beach. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seals 111 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 I don't have a trailer so I'm not sure what the requirements are, but what about the area near Marineland and Fort Matanzas Nat'l. Park. We often detour that way because It's beautiful. You may even be able to park in the Marineland parking lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CJHokie 43 Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 We overnighted at Hanna Park in Jacksonville before. Not sure what time of year you are going, but we stopped on the way back from spring break, so March-ish, and there was plenty of parking in the beach lots. I will say a) you do have to go a bit off 95 and there was construction with traffic then, so not ideal to hop on/hop off and 2) not the prettiest beach (to be fair, that was after a week at Destin, so we might have been a little spoiled.) Probably not the best, but an option. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
