Although overshadowed by the glamour and attention attracted by the theme parks and sights of Orlando, the Space Coast has established itself as the Florida region where it all takes off. Centered on Brevard County, home to Kennedy Space Center, the area is always bustling with activity and excitement.
When NASA began launching rockets from Cape Canaveral in the 1950s, the Space Coast felt the boom as thousands of families flocked to the area. During NASA’s heyday of the 1960s of launching men into outer space and landing them on the moon, the space program employed 26 percent of Brevard County’s workforce.
The Space Coast’s unique mix of technology and nature make this area one of Florida’s special places. Residents enjoy the conveniences and culture of the big city without the traffic and hassles. With its beautiful sandy beaches, its prime fishing holes, and lush golf courses, the Space Coast also is an outdoor enthusiast’s dream.
