West Melbourne, Florida: A Great Place to Visit or Live 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) As a former resident of West Melbourne, Florida I can vouch that it is a nice little town with a great family vibe. Even though the town was expanding while I was there, it never seemed to lose its small town feel. Another perk was that when living in West Melbourne, Florida I wa ...Read More s very close to the beach.

In addition to being close to the beach, some of the best areas of West Melbourne, Florida include the Fifth Avenue Art Museum and the Brevard Zoo. If you wish to visit a state park, then you can explore Sebastian Inlet State Park which is only a short drive away from West Melbourne. There are many places to visit during the day, but you will find that to find exciting nightlife you’ll have to travel more than fifteen minutes.

I would recommend anyone live in or visit West Melbourne. The town provides many things to do in an atmosphere that is relaxing. There are lots of restaurants and stores to meet your needs as well. Read Less
