    Nice park
    Easy access free parking, clean beach with areas marked off where there were sea turtle nests. It is a county park so there are life guards on duty. Great Place to sit and watch the cruise ships leave. They do rent umbrellas and chairs. Shower to rinse off sand in parking lot.

    Beach Day
    Great place to unwind after Disney World days. The beach was clean, not too busy and had a life guard. We were able to rent umbrellas and chairs for a decent price from a very nice young man and were about an hour away from our rental. We would definitely return 🌞

    Accessible boardwalk+ Love the foot shower
    Ditto all of the other reviews that highly recommend this park. I am physically limited so truly appreciated the chance to walk out to the edge of deep sand via a boardwalk that's not far from handicapped parking. I also want to add that the foot shower is a nice touch since few beaches offer the chance to fully wash off sand after the beach.

    Nice Surprise for a long-time visitor
    Been going to Cocoa Brach for 30+ years and stopped by for first time. Great access to beach and walkway. Little walking path through the vegetation is a great way to escape the sun and enjoy the outdoors.

    Easy choice
    Show up early to get a umbrella and chairs for $30 for the day. $10 for a boogie board for the day. Great Sand and lots of shells. Free parking and showers with multiple bathrooms. Only thing missing was tide pools.

A really nice free beach. Ample free parking also. The beach was not crowded and it was clean. There is only 1 outside shower, which can a little time consuming, but a few extra minutes beats being at work.

Great place to go since parking is free and there is plenty of it. It is just a short walk to the beach. It is better to either go early or later though as parking does fill up pretty quick.

We just love this park! We ended up here in May when Cocoa Beach was sort of closed to outsiders. We parked here again Sunday morning to run the Cocoa Beach 10K, it was the perfect spot. We used the facilities that morning, unfortunately, they were very dirty. I guess you kind of expect that, since it is right there at the beach, but there was no soap UGH. Again, great park for access to the beach.

Nice public park directly on the beach. No charge to park. There's boardwalks thru the woods that lead out to the beach. Covered picnic areas, restrooms and playground. Lots of private places to enjoy your day.

Lori Wilson Park Beach rentals is great.
Some rain moved in on us but Skylar made sure we were taken care of. He was a very helpful gentleman. If his boss reads this give that man a raise.
He is doing a great job taking care of your business.

We love this rather large dog park! Separate areas for dogs over and under 20 lbs. Large play area with plenty of water bowls and a few toys. We used the small dog section and there was a hose you could fill water bottles or play in, there was a small pool for the pups that you could fill up and plenty of seating and shade for human comfort. :) Great place to take the pups!

Great beach access. There were 3-4 outdoor showers, bathrooms, and picnic benches. There are also picnic areas at the front with more parking. We felt safe leaving our car parked in the parking lot.

My husband and I loved Lori Wilson Park. The beach was beautiful and we liked that there was a life guard on duty. The little trails to get to the beach made you feel like you were walking through a jungle with all the pretty agriculture surrounding them. Every morning we rode our bikes to the park and enjoyed the sunshine!

We used to visit here a lot but then haven’t been for about 10 years. It’s a great place to park but it fills very quickly this visit we were about to leave and found a space. There are picnic tables, children’s play areas, rest rooms and beach access.

Not crowded (we went early on a week day), FREE, bathrooms were cleaner then expected although they are free beach bathrooms so keep that in mind in regards to your expectations. We were able to swim and enjoy the gorgeous weather. Not a very far walk to the beach. No commercial tourist stuff. Bring a picnic to eat in the pavillion! We liked this better then Playalinda because there was no traffic and the facilities were cleaner and more comprehensive, e.g. pavillion and outdoor shower. Playalinda has better sand but there is a fee
