Maritime Hammock Sanctuary - Melbourne Beach (FL)

5 /5 Tim: Very beautiful place. Trails are easy to walk. Bug spay is needed in some places if you don’t want to get swarmed. Even with bug spray I got bitten. I saw some large gators in the ponds. Also saw a large snapping turtle and a tortoise. But the trees and plants are what make this so beautiful and worth the time here.

5 /5 Frank Decot: Great place to hike and experience coastal habitats. There are scenic views of the lagoon as well as lots of bridges and boardwalks. There are a couple different loops to hike. The trails are well marked with arrows and there are maps periodically along the way. Bug spray would be a must in the warmer and wetter months.

4 /5 Adventures Simply (Sarah Lynn): I really do like the trails I came during dry season and it hasnt rained and probably like at least a month. So the water levels were very low. I feel like during the wet season half of the trails you probably cant use or get too. Nice Trails but stop is not really marked and on Google Maps you cant really see the trails and theyre not marked on Google Map either so it is super easy to get turned around.

5 /5 Marlayna Sheeran: An easy, beautiful walk. We took young kids and they had a great time. We went about 2 miles but there was much more that we didnt get to explore.We saw an alligator, which made me a bit nervous. It was shady and cool. I loved that it was right next to the ocean and there was a nice cool breeze coming off the water. We saw butterflies and lizards galore.
