Cocoa Beach Aerial Adventures

Cocoa Beach Aerial Adventures puts kids in the trees — literally. This outdoor adventure park near N Atlantic Ave in Cape Canaveral features multi-level ropes courses, zip lines, and sky bridges that challenge kids (and adults) to navigate obstacles while up in the air with ocean views in the distance.

With a 4. 9 rating from 546 reviews, this is one of the highest-rated family activities on the Space Coast, and the reviews consistently highlight how well the courses are designed for mixed-age groups. Younger kids have beginner-friendly elements that give them real confidence, while older kids and teens take on progressively harder courses that require genuine problem-solving and physical effort.

The setup works for a wide age range — from adventurous 5-year-olds to teens who want something more challenging than the beach. Everyone is harnessed in with safety equipment and staff monitors the courses, so parents can watch from below without worrying.

Important logistics: the park closes at 3:30PM, so this is a morning-to-early-afternoon activity. Plan to arrive no later than 1:30PM to get a proper session in. Wear closed-toe shoes — this is non-negotiable for safety on the courses, and sandals or flip-flops will get you turned away at the gate.

Budget $100–$160 for a family of 4, depending on which course levels you choose. It's more affordable than Disney and delivers a more active, unique experience that kids talk about long after the trip.

This pairs beautifully with a beach afternoon — wear your adventure clothes in the morning, then head to Cocoa Beach or Jetty Park for the afternoon.
