Florida's Canaveral National Seashore | Travel Guide

[@kaylasmith1515]

I thought for sure you were going to eat that fruit! It’s cool to see palm trees and shrubs-like plants on the beach. Glad you found your campsite!

[@AmericasParks]

Haha! Getting wiser in my older years!

[@juliesmith444]

I love the tropical trails and scenery. Not sure about “mosquito lake” though

[@AmericasParks]

Beautiful area indeed!

[@jameshouse1268]

Thank you for sharing this trip along the FL coast. It is interesting to think, as you said, that the coast used to all be like this! Take care always!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, James! All the best in 2023!

[@nigesmitj9389]

Thanks randy awesome video, its cool i got mondays to look forward to again 👍. Mosquito lagoon sounds terrifying 😱.

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate the ver nice comment! Encouraging!

[@sluggotinfantryman]

In cooler weather great kayaking. Ocean too if calm.

[@normiewoo787]

I love the Space Coast. Lots of great memories there. Thanks for the video!

[@AmericasParks]

Awesome! It's really a wonderful area!

[@hikingelevated]

I love Florida. I went to Manatee Beach last June and the waters were very warm and amazing.

[@AmericasParks]

Good taste, my friend! So wonderful to visit FL!

[@lesliesmith7835]

Thank you Randy, I always enjoy your wonderful videos... Robin

[@AmericasParks]

Much appreciated, brother!

[@sluggotinfantryman]

Good fishing.

[@grayearly3116]

Beautiful landscapes, love the ocean.

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks for watching!

[@sluggotinfantryman]

Great Beach. If your up to it walk from south end to north. Take big backpack for shells. Worked here too. Lots of sharks. Drive up Island to Seminole Rest. There is sand road south canaveral that runs along mosquito lagoon then turns back to hwy. Lots of gators and birds if in season.

It looked like you had a pretty relaxing time at this national seashore. I didn't know there were only 10 national seashores. It looks so peaceful there. Thanks, Randy!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks... looking to upload a video of the 10 seashores soon. Most people can only name 1-2 of them.

[@potatothorn]

ocean swimming in the winter got to love Florida! nice walk and Wow what a pile of shells they made! very impressive. awesome they help you get to your site late, NPS is really good about that sort of thing. Thanks for taking us with you!

[@AmericasParks]

Yeah, this was really a special place on the FL shore. Small location, but a lot of fun/different things to go. Happy 2023!

[@potatothorn]

@@AmericasParks Happy New Year!

[@jonathantitus2629]

Thanks for sharing once again. This is one we have yet to visit, but with our daughter now living in te Orlando area it is just a matter of time...maybe later this year.

[@AmericasParks]

Hope it works for you, brother!

[@dogedogbar]

i cant believe you went up north into dakoto so much i like videoas

[@AmericasParks]

Thank you

[@bettsboysadventure3539]

Great look into one of my favorite places. Also great for sunrise and shelling.

[@AmericasParks]

Happy to hear that! Had a blast at Canaveral that day!

[@Thomas-i5x6u]

Great video brother, I plan on going within a week or two, the weather is awesome, and my goal is to see a launch, have been up that way several times, all scrubbed. So I think I will stay a few, Rock!

[@AmericasParks]

Hey brother, hope you were able to get this trip in. Be blessed!

[@sluggotinfantryman]

Seminole Rest is go to House. It's at other end of the Island.

[@DestinationEarth]

Mosquito lagoon - not sure I'd want to live in a place with that namesake, lol. Glad you were able to find your spot!

[@AmericasParks]

haha... wife said the same thing!

[@NickandRachel]

I would have went insane driving 4 hours covered in sticky Atlantic Ocean water 🤣 not to mention the sand! Out of the last 10 times I've been to the beach I've probably got in twice lol I'll stick to the springs. That seashore is beautiful though I've never seen that one! Thanks for taking us along.

[@AmericasParks]

Beautiful place! It was nice to hit some of these national seashores in the Florida area last fall. Hope to get another one uploaded today.

[@jimgreen5788]

Randy, I was there last summer. What a great place. I ran into some of those "birthday suit" signs as well. That ending drive through the campground was darker than a stack of black cats.

[@AmericasParks]

Nice to hear you've enjoyed this gem as well! There was hardly anyone there when I visited.

[@Mikey-Likes-It_101]

Randy, What a nice day! I regret not going to this National Seashore when I visited the Cape Kennedy (NASA) facility. I most enjoyed when you took us in to the breakers for an AMERICA’S PARKS dip! THANK YOU FOR THE TOUR of this NATIONAL SEASHORE treasure, .. .. .. Mike

[@AmericasParks]

Hey Mike! Thanks and hope you had a blessed Christmas! We went to Kennedy Space Center a few years back. Incredible experience!

[@jackiek5782]

I'm embarrassed to admit I live nearby and have never been! But now I will!

[@AmericasParks]

Great to hear that, Jackie!

[@R72vegas]

Happy Birthday 🎂

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, brother! It was a great day!

[@OurNationalAdventure]

Happy birthday! I missed that part

[@AmericasParks]

@@OurNationalAdventure Thnaks!

[@jymnmeier3527]

Great start to the new year ! What a beautiful place. Were there any other people visiting there? We are hoping to be in that area next winter and may need to check it out. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year and much love !!

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate that, my friend! Really empty when I was there in the fall. Ran into very few other folks on the beach or on the trails.

[@peterdurkin8980]

The cruise ships in partnership with the hospitals still dispose of the haz bags

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks for the comment!

[@markakira8988]

When I'm 80 I'm going to be one of those guys with a metal detector on the Florida beaches. Supposedly, the best time is after a hurricane. I hope the Chicago Bears pick you next year since they have the #1 pick. I'll buy your jersey and let you sing Steve Fuller's part in Superbowl Shuffle remix.

[@AmericasParks]

Wow... A+ on the Chicago Bears trivia! Only problem is that my football game is on par with Fuller's dancing these days!

[@jarob2775]

Hey Randy love your Videos! What’s your thoughts on the new NPS permit requirements for filming and how is it going to affect your channel?

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate that! Still looking into the details... seems like a total government overreach.

[@sluggotinfantryman]

The last beachhead up the road by the telescope is #10. That is the nude one. There is not a federal statue for nudity in nps. My favorite thing to do here was walking north 3 miles up beach aka back country. FLORIDA IS HOT. The beach slants so walking it is harder. Take a big backpack for shell.

[@OurNationalAdventure]

Love the national seashore- always less people and more beach...interesting that they are nude beaches. I'd love to have lived at the state house by the sea and orange groves.

[@OurNationalAdventure]

Bhaaha..."if you are into plants, I'm kind of not" That's surprising! Glad you found your campground!!

[@AmericasParks]

Plan to upload Cumberland Island today. Learned of that one from your video!

[@AmericasParks]

haha! :)

[@Chillaxing113]

I don't know if the water and rip currents on the Atlantic side are as dangerous as it can be on the Gulf of Mexico side of Florida and all along the Gulf Coast but please be careful when the water is rough. I live on the Alabama Gulf Coast and rip currents are very dangerous. Lives are lost every year due to the dangerous waters. Just a warning if you're ever visiting the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, don't take chances when the waves are rough. That kinda made me nervous when you were out in the rough water and you mentioned something about rip currents.

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate the concern, Debra! Totally agree. We live a 1/2 mile from the shore in NJ.

[@sluggotinfantryman]

South End is what I speak.

[@kcgustke]

This is Central Florida, not North East.

[@AmericasParks]

Yeah, you're right. Hitting a new place every day and you can get a little disorientated.

[@937nasty]

i wanted to see what the campground looked like in the morning. you should include that next time.

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks for the feedback, Nathan! Wish I could include a pic in the comments.

[@consciouscoma85]

those wild oranges are like eating battery acid...

[@AmericasParks]

Perfect comparison!

[@sluggotinfantryman]

There are gators. If you crab you will catch a gator. Not a crab.
