Visitors to Melbourne Beach can visit the Old Town Hall that early settlers built in 1908. Although the Old Town Hall no longer sits in its former location in Ryckman Park, its exhibits depict the history of the town, including exhibits of the indigenous Ais Indian tribe, the explorer Juan Ponce de Leon, Spanish shipwrecks and the town's development. Travelers can visit the Old Town Hall History Center on Saturdays and some holidays.
