- During my summer vacation, I went to Cocoa Beach, Florida with three of my friends. While I was there, I took introductory surfing lessons, played Frisbee, and went snorkeling. I tried many new restaurants on the pier and took daily walks on the beach. My friends and I went kayaking for the first time, and even though we got sunburnt, we had a great time. We also took a day trip to Disney World. It was an unforgettable vacation, and I hope I can go back to Cocoa Beach next summer.
