Parrish Park-Titusville;
1 A. Max Brewer Memorial Parkway, Titusville.
Situated on both sides of SR-402 at the A. Max Brewer Causeway and extends from the east end of the draw bridge to the security gates for Kennedy Space Center.

This park features two fishing decks, one on the north side west of the marine patrol station near the boat ramps and the other on the south side near the base of the bridge.
Just east of the Marine Patrol Station is a section of accessable beach running the length of the causeway on both sides for shoreline and wade fishing, as well as canoe / kayak launching. The north side shoreline is better for wade fishing, opening to a stretch of flats that can hold redfish and seatrout, while along the south side, a deeper trench that is worth a check during cooler weather. Kayaks can paddle south to the mouths of Gator Creek and then Catfish Creek.Try the flats outside of these creek mouths.
