Early Cocoa Beach and Port Canaveral

Another photo of Cocoa Beach taken in the 1920's most likely showing one of the events of the period that were meant to draw people in order to sell real estate. The sign featured in the center shows the early intentions of the area's residents to create Port Canaveral, which was not dedicated until 1953.
