A pickup truck bed piled high with dozens of ripe, striped watermelons

Derek's Watermelons

Mangonia Park, Florida — A roadside stand on Australian Avenue. Fresh melons, straight off the truck.

The Stand

Watermelons, by the truckload.

No storefront, no frills — just a truck bed full of ripe melons under a canopy on the east side of N Australian Ave, just south of the Dunkin at 4607. Pull over, pick your melon, pay cash. Simple, and worth the stop.
