Universal and IOA are the best theme park attractions in Orlando, in my opinion.
Disney is cool for the experience but really the rides aren't as good as Universal/IOA unless you're <12.
I've never been to Sea World or Aquatica but in the hotter months I'd imagine they'd be fun. For what it's worth, I hear Aquatica is more fun.
Cocoa Beach is ok. Coming from the Midwest I'm sure any place with sand will look like heaven, but if you're really trying to kick it on a nicer beach, I'd head to the gulf side. The drive to, say, Clearwater from Orlando as opposed to Cocoa/Daytona from Orlando is only about a 25-30 minute difference.
Just my 2 cents, playboy.
