Number 1: The Parks
The obvious one, and the one we will cover first, is the multitude of theme parks in Orlando. Port Canaveral is Orlando’s port and is only 45 minutes away from all of it’s theme park attractions like Disney World, Epcot Center, Universal Studios, and more. Port Canaveral is the perfect spot to begin or end a theme park vacation with a cruise.
Number 2: The Rockets
The Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station is only about 10 miles from the port and instills the wonders of space travel upon it’s visitors. Port Canaveral is well situated to view space launches too. The northern border of the port actually abuts the air station which still launches Atlas V rockets for the Air Force and Falcon 9 rockets courtesy of Space X. If your cruise doesn’t coincide with a launch you can still see the rocket garden and experience the launch simulator at the Kennedy Space Center Visitors Complex.
Number 3: The Beach
Cocoa Beach is the surfing capital of the Atlantic. With the enormous Ron Jon’s Surf Shop and others providing all the surf gear or beach equipment you could want or need it is super easy to get your surf on. If you aren’t a surfer there’s still a lot of fun to be had swimming or just lounging on the beach. The beach area boasts some great eats too. The Shark Pit is right off the beach next door to the famous Cocoa Beach Surf Company Store.
Number 4: The Cars
Port Canaveral has a startling surprise. Tucked away inside of the port is Parker Brother Concepts which specializes in Vacio hub-less wheels, and has a Hollywood Museum where you can see the Tumbler for the Dark Knight, Ecto 1 from Ghostbusters, Optimus Prime from Transformers, and several other concepts.
Number 5: The Food
Port Canaveral has several excellent restaurants and lounges with Fishlips and Milliken’s Reef being well known as places to eat a meal and watch the cruise ships come in.
