Will be on the Adventure sailing next Friday, What to do around Port Canaveral?

Hi All,

We'll be on Adventure leaving next Friday (YAY!!) and our first stop is Port Canaveral. Can you guys recommend stuff to do around the Port? I searched the site and saw alot of suggestions for excursions but nothing really interested us. I guess we could take an Uber/cab/bus to Cocoa Beach....is there alot to do there? We'll probably end up just enjoying the ship but is there things to do within walking distance around the port...shopping or kid-friendly things? Thanks!

Kennedy Space Center.

Second Kennedy Space Center

Other than the Space Center and expensive shopping (Ron Jon's) there doesn't seem to be much. We decided to head over to Orlando and go to Gatorland.

Go into Cocoa Beach and have froyo at I Dream of Yogurt. Really cool place (with real I Dream of Jeannie memorabilia and videos) plus excellent froyo and nice people.

But I highly recommend www.kennedyspacecenter.com

We're going to do this in March. http://www.sobesurf.com/cocoa-beach/tours/

Bob, this is an amazing list. Is there one similar for Port Everglades?

Yes, Capt BJ did an excellent job on that.

I've not seen a list for Port Everglades. However, you might try asking on the Florida Departures forum: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=495

Exploration Tower is cheap and kid friendly. Your problem is Adventure uses T10 which is not walkable to the Cove area. Nothing near the north side of the port.

Anthem uses T1 when she comes to town. Very easy to do things within walking distance.

Go to KSC via ships excursion is what I would do.
