ULUMAY WILDLIFE SANCTUARY – 805 Sykes Creek Pkwy, Merritt Island, 35952 – This 436.53-acre bird reservation and sanctuary offers a wilderness escape. Historically documented as a village of the Ais Indians who disappeared around 1720, it is a natural lagoon and bird rookery linked with canals created for mosquito control and surrounded by a manmade dike. A bird-watching tower offers a scenic overlook of the lagoon, and a fishing pier commonly known as Old Humpbacked Troll Bridge offers the rumored sightings of trolls and the likely sightings of dolphin, birds, and more.

DESOTO PARK – Satellite Beach, 32937 – Every winter, on especially cold nights, hundreds of manatees converge in one small canal in Satellite Beach, adjacent to DeSoto Park. The canal is quite shallow so the manatees are clearly visible. Dont forget us ! (a-better-place.com)
