Things to do in the Port Canaveral Area

The Dinosaur Store Adventure Zone

Life size replica of dinosaur fossils in Cocoa Beach

While enjoying the surf and sand of Cocoa Beach, you may find your mind turning to…dinosaurs?  Yeah, we aren’t sure about the logic either, but we do like the place. The Dinosaur Store is a local landmark and hosts life-size replicas of dinosaurs, marine reptiles, and other neat things to see. It’s well worth stopping in for a look, especially for the family.

The Orlando Eye

Orlando-Florida-Eye

From the ground, Orlando can seem pretty busy. Attraction next to attraction, all competing for your attention, and very busy. From 400 feet up you can see why they call it the City Beautiful. The universal opinion from everyone who takes the twenty-minute ride around is that Orlando is far greener, and lake filled than they thought.

View Orlando from a new perspective, 400 feet up in the sky before cruising! Then experience precruising from a new perspective by getting one of Go Port’s unique hotel packages. Flying in? Get roundtrip airport transportation, hotel stay, and a shuttle to your cruise terminal with our Hyatt Place Orlando Airport Fly Snooze Cruise Package. For those driving in, we offer a hotel night with cruise parking and transfers at one low rate at Hyatt Place Orlando Airport Snooze Park Cruise.

Playalinda Brewing Company

Playalinda Brewing Company

We’ve talked about Playalinda Beach before. On your way back from the beach, stop off in Titusville for a flavorful beer at the Playalinda Brewing Company in downtown Titusville. With homebrews and craft beers that you’re hard pressed to find on tap anywhere else. Be wary, though, the appropriately named Insanity and Lower De Boom are a powerful 11.1% and 11.5% alcohol by volume respectively.

After some brews and boozing before ya cruising, spend the night at a nearby hotel with one of Go Port’s packages. Flying in? Get roundtrip airport transportation, hotel stay, and a shuttle to your cruise terminal with our Holiday Inn Titusville Fly Snooze Cruise Package. For those driving in, we offer a hotel night with cruise parking and transfers at one low rate at Holiday Inn Titusville Snooze Park Cruise.

Titusville Playhouse

The cast of the Titusville Playhouse performance of Mary Poppins

After drinks at the Playalinda Brewing Company, why not catch a show at the Titusville Playhouse?  It’s a blast from the past that’s been running since 1967 when two theater troupes joined forces. Unlike large performing arts centers, this 82 seat theater depends on the energy and the talent of its actors to carry the show. It works surprisingly well and makes this theater one of Florida’s hidden gems.

Discover a hidden gem with theatre and also cruising with Go Port. Flying in? Get roundtrip airport transportation, hotel stay, and a shuttle to your cruise terminal with our Quality Inn Kennedy Space Center Fly Snooze Cruise Package. For those driving in, we offer a hotel night with cruise parking and transfers at one low rate at Quality Inn Kennedy Space Center Snooze Park Cruise.

Aquatica Water Park

View of attractions at Sea World's Aquatica water park

When you think of Sea World you think of Shamu. Well, you can show off your own tricks at Sea World’s Aquatica waterpark. The slides will help you catch a little airtime, and the park does have the marine life like porpoises to see in their own pools. The views are spectacular under the water, or high in the air.

Dry off and spend the night at one of our partnered hotels near Aquatica. Flying in? Get roundtrip airport transportation, hotel stay, and a shuttle to your cruise terminal with our Orlando Airport Fly Snooze Cruise Packages. For those driving in, we offer a hotel night with cruise parking and transfers at one low rate in our Snooze Park Cruise packages.
