Brevard County is home to a wide variety of flora and fauna that attract nature enthusiasts, bird watchers, and fishermen from all over the world. Brevard’s Rivers are also home to tiny, glowing creatures that light up the water during the summer months. These critters, called dinoflagellates, are a type of bioluminescent plankton that emit a blue-white light when the waters are disturbed. Visitors to the area can find kayak tours from Titusville down south to Sebastian and everywhere in between to view the phenomenon between May and October. Calm nights without moonlight make for ideal conditions, and don’t forget mosquito repellent!

The Banana River along Cocoa Beach will be lighting up this weekend for the annual Cocoa Beach Boat Parade. The parade will take place on December 10, and start just south of HWY 520 at 6:00p.m. Onlookers will find good viewing areas all along the Banana River, from HWY 520 to Minutemen Causeway; be sure to check out the Cocoa Beach Rotary Club’s map for detailed route information. Boat parades are a popular event across the state, as a very Floridian way to celebrate the holidays and the Florida lifestyle. The weekend weather forecast indicates a cool, breezy evening.
