About Pelican Creek

Estates

Pelican Creek Estates, located between S Courtenay Pkwy and Banana River Drive, is a waterfront and residential Merritt Island neighborhood with canal-front lots and boat-lift docks. The neighborhood reads as low-slung Florida ranch homes and newer coastal builds framed by palms, seawalls, and wide driveways. The character concentrates around the S Courtenay Pkwy corridor near the SR 520 causeway, where marinas, tackle shops, and locally run waterfront dining set a salt-air tempo. Community touchstones include Island Time Marina & Restaurant, The Islander Grill & Tiki Bar, and Merritt Island Pancake House. Water views and evening boat traffic shape daily rhythms, while nearby parks and launches keep the shoreline active. Streets stay quiet, with most motion drawn toward the river and the causeways.
