Latest reviews on Indian River County's beaches

Golden Sands
10 Lila J. Raine

While traveling along Florida's east coast in our Class A motorhome, our nieces and nephews from Alaska were eager to find a beach to play in the water. After passing by a few crowded public parking lots, we stumbled upon Golden Sands Park. The parking lot was mostly empty and we found a great spot to park our motorhome. The beach was beautiful and the kids had a blast playing in the waves. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the beach was well-maintained and even had showers available.

South beach
8 Sara Lee

We stumbled upon this beach during a drive and arrived around 7:30pm, which turned out to be the perfect time to visit. The beach offers ample parking, including handicapped spots, as well as public restrooms and vending machines for snacks and soda. Walking along the wooden boardwalk under a canopy of trees was a pleasant experience. Once the boardwalk ended, we stepped onto the clean sand and gazed out at the clear water. With very few people around, it was a perfect day to enjoy this beautiful Florida beach.

Vero beach
10 Lila Branson

The beach was stunningly beautiful, with well-maintained surroundings and great shopping options. The water was a lovely turquoise color and the entire area was exceptionally clean. This was my first visit, and I'm already eagerly anticipating my next trip back.

Round Island beach
10 Avery Delaney

We stumbled upon a magnificent beach park and decided to spend some time there. The park boasts a playground, a scenic walking trail, a fish cleaning station, and clean restrooms. The tranquil ambiance of the area makes it a perfect spot to unwind and rejuvenate. During the winter season, one can spot the gentle and majestic manatees, adding to the charm of the place.

Ambersand beach
10 Fizz Williams

This serene haven is the closest you can feel to having your own private beach. During my visit, I only spotted a handful of people in over four hours, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the beauty of this secluded spot. The stunning scenery is truly remarkable, making it a perfect spot for relaxation and reflection.

Turtle beach
10 Nico Rodriguez

This beach is truly remarkable. Its serene and tranquil atmosphere makes it an ideal spot for unwinding and experiencing pure bliss.
