https://www.fws.gov/refuge/Merritt_Island/ Watch an abundance of wildlife on both drive-through and hiking trails. Large flocks of native birds such as roseate spoonbill and white pelican land to rest even at high traffic areas. See manatee by the locks, alligators in the marsh, and sometimes turtles at the nearby Canaveral National Seashore--also included with admission. Stop at the visitor center first with a few nice exhibits, and a very helpful staff that will let you know where to view what you're looking for.

Check out the Sea Turtle Walk if you're here the right time of year. It's an unforgettable experience and more than worth the drive. https://www.fws.gov/archiecarr/turtlewalks.html

Amazing views & wildlife on a beach closer to it's natural state than other areas. Admission is included with the Merrit Island National Wildlife Refuge, so you can easily make a day out of both. https://www.nps.gov/cana/index.htm

See local aquatic and seabird wildlife in paludarium displays. Highlights include the Sea Turtle Rehabilitation area, touch tank, aviary, and the resident great horned owl, Bubba. There are a couple well-maintained nature walks and wetlands observation areas as well. The nearby Ponce Inlet Lighthouse is only steps away if you are looking for a full day of activities. http://www.marinesciencecenter.com

The Canaveral Lighthouse Tour is a great way to see the lighthouse, the launch sites on the Air Force Station, and the Air Force Space and Missile Museum all in one trip. The bus tour starts at Exploration Tower--just a couple blocks from Peacock Harbor. Do note you need to book at least a day in advance for Air Force security purposes. http://www.canaverallighthouse.com

Amazing views from the top of this lighthouse; one of the few in the area with an accessible top. Several additional buildings on-site with high quality museum exhibits. Driving US 1 rather than interstate 95 will take longer, but has several nice views along the way. To fill a day with activities in the same place, check out the Marine Science Center only a few steps away.
