Sun and sand on this barrier island
Primarily residential, Paradise Beach draws snowbirds and permanent homebuyers for its waterfront properties, laid-back lifestyle and access to outdoor fun and amenities. The quaint beach town is part of Florida’s barrier islands between the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian River Lagoon. “It has a certain culture you won’t find anywhere else along the Space Coast. It’s got that Pleasantville vibe,” says Victoria Stacy, a Realtor with One Sotheby’s International. “You go down to the beaches in the morning and see the locals having coffee and talking about the weather. I don’t think you can replicate what they have here.” Besides beach activities and proximity to Indialantic attractions, Paradise Beach’s aerospace and aviation industries also draw homebuyers. Its location is an easy commute to the Kennedy Space Center, the Patrick Space Force Base and Northrop Grumman.
Living and playing by Paradise Beach
The beach is the community's biggest draw, sitting steps from residents’ homes. Fishing, swimming and surfing are popular pastimes. The 12-acre beachfront Howard E. Futch Memorial Park is a hub for activity, with sand volleyball courts, playgrounds, dune crossovers and picnic facilities. Sunrise Park is in the neighborhood’s southeastern corner. The beachfront spot features an observation deck and exercise stations. Herbert Hoover Middle provides a large athletic complex with soccer fields, tennis courts and a 21-station exercise trail for public use. Canova Beach Park is less than 2 miles north, making for a quick bike ride. It offers miles of public beach access and a dog beach. James H. Nance Park is directly south and home to the Sea Turtle Preservation Society. The Melbourne and Indialantic areas are among Florida’s top breeding grounds for sea turtles, and the communities provide many refuges and habitats for preservation.

Long-term living in a destination town
The neighborhood is about 5 miles long, making it walkable and bikeable. It offers ranch- and Mediterranean-style houses and million-dollar waterfront estates. Multifamily and vacation rentals are also available. Most were built in the late-1970s. “The more affordable neighborhoods are farther north,” says Kellie Bowling, Broker for the Coastal Estate Team at Compass. “Prices range anywhere from around $400,000 for a three-bedroom to nearly $4 million for a riverfront estate.” Property sizes average between 1,400 square feet and 5,000 square feet. Most dwellings have pools, lot sizes averaging more than a quarter acre and multicar garages. Beachfront properties are primarily high-rise condominiums. Oceanview is on the lower end, offering two bedrooms starting in the low-$300,000s with a clubhouse, fitness center and pickleball courts. Penthouse four-bedroom condos, like those in the Coral Reef development, can go for over $1 million. Rental single-family houses and condos are mainly along the beachfront and in the heart of town. “Many of the HOA communities have rules against vacation rentals within them, but a small portion falls under the City of Melbourne, which does allow short-term rentals,” Bowling says. Prices start in the mid-$2,000s to the low-$7,000s for an oceanfront multistory beach house. Most residents are within walking or biking distance of the beach and parks. Paradise Beach has a CAP Index Crime Score of 2/10, lower than the national average of 4.
Relax on the island
Shops and restaurants are along South Highway A1A. “There are a lot of dining options in the area, and they’re quite affordable,” Bowling says. “One of my favorite places to eat is Skewers Mediterranean.” The family-owned eatery is known for its spiced kebabs and banana cake. Village Shoppes-Paradise Beach is at the heart of town, with multiple restaurants. Bunky’s Raw Bar & Grill is a popular spot here for oysters, gumbo and lobster rolls. Long Doggers is a favorite for burgers, beer and foot-long hot dogs. For brunch, there is The Blueberry Muffin. The neighborhood’s Indialantic Shopping Center offers Dollar General, ACE Hardware and other services. Publix is next door. Dijon’s Village Market is 1 mile south of the shopping strip and includes a restaurant, market and rooftop bar. Seven miles west, shopping mall Melbourne Square, offers a wider selection, with roughly 125 retailers.
Djon's Village Market is a one of a kind market with a full service grocery store & juice bar.
