Wag! Walkers know Sanders
Sanders is a mostly commercial area of town on Willard Street, close
to the causeway that goes over the Indian River to Merritt Island. Most of the residences are apartments above the businesses or in the nearby condos that line the side
of the river. Sanders is in a bustling area of town, thanks to the causeway, and
finding places to walk your dog that aren't paved can be a bit of a challenge.
There are plenty of small shops, restaurants, and bars nearby for you while MYDOGSWAG, a pet supply store for dog lovers, is within walking
distance on the corner of Center Street and Ridgeway Avenue. The nearest grocery store,
a Publix Supermarket, is less than ten minutes to the south.
Along with having everything your family needs to eat, they also carry a decent
selection of brand-name dog foods. If you need a Walmart Supercenter, the
nearest one is ten minutes to the north.
What is the terrain like in Sanders?
Sanders covers an area of downtown Cocoa measuring four large
blocks, a significant part of which is paved parking lots. Because
Willard Street is connected to the Hubert Humphrey Causeway coming from Merritt Island
and runs through the neighborhood, you and your pup might find the traffic along
this vital road to be more than you can handle for your walks until your pooch has
had a chance to get used to the noise.
Morning and evening rush hours tend to be quite busy and you should expect a lot more traffic during the day coming from Port
Canaveral where several cruise ships call home. The one place you can take your
dog for long daily walks in relative safety is the riverbank going north from
the Cocoa Village Marina. Along the riverbank is a wide strip of grass you that may be slightly bumpy, but is still mostly flat and easy to traverse.
How many greenways are there in Sanders?
One of the benefits to being this close to the water is that
you and your dog can walk to the combined area of Lee Wenner, Taylor,
and the Cocoa Riverfront Parks. The three parks provide
you and your dog with lots of grass to walk and play on. Taylor Park has playground
equipment for the kids, Cocoa Riverfront Park is home to a variety
of events during the summer, and Lee Wenner Park has a public boat ramp.
If a long walk on the beach is what you have in mind, you
can cross the causeway over to Cocoa Beach and be on the sand in less than twenty
minutes. Unlike Cape Canaveral to the north, dogs are permitted
on the beach from 4th Street South to South 16th Street. The beaches are
open to dogs for a few specific hours out of the day.
Your dog must be on a leash at all times and you must clean up after them
using the provided pet waste receptacles.
