Every summer, hundreds of turtles come to the beaches of Brevard County to lay their eggs. If you are here from June through August at night, you may get a chance to see them! The Sea Turtle Preservation Society hosts turtle walks where you can learn all about the turtles and get a few glimpses of them. If you are especially lucky, you might see some sea turtles hatch! I have seen this and it is an awesome sight. You will need to make reseveration long in advance as the tours fill up quickly

Manatees are one of the most unique and iconic species of animals native to Florida. They’re chubby and slow-moving marine mammals that grow to massive proportions and are often referred to as sea cows.
Located on Merritt Island, Manatee Cove Park is comprised of nearly 30 acres of prime manatee habitat that’s perfect for viewing these lovable animals.
In addition to a variety of viewing areas, the park includes trails leading around the lagoon, a playground, and several picnic tables and built-in barbecue grills as well.
Admission to the park is inexpensive, and most of the money collected goes directly to programs aimed at preserving the manatee’s habit.

If driving a tank over a car and pumping a belt of live rounds through the smoking barrel of a fully-automatic military-grade machine gun sounds like one heck of a way to spend an afternoon, then look no further than Tank America in Melbourne.
It’s unlike any recreation destination you’ll ever experience, and though it’s not cheap, it’ll likely be one of the most memorable things you do on your trip to Florida.
Due to its loud and explosive nature, it probably isn’t a good match for your mousey Aunt Mildred from MA.

This is truely a one of a kind car museum. Unfortunately it is a private museum and the owner will only open for select groups to view on special occasions and charitable events. If you know anyone that is a member of one of the local car clubs, they may be able to get you passes. That was how i was able to get a look inside!
