Port Canaveral Beach Day

[sunhoney64]

One of our stops is in Port Canaveral. Have you taken a cab/uber to the beach? If so, which one is the closest. Not much we want to see there. :confused::confused:

one of the nicest - and most popular with local folks - is actually connected to the port: Jetty Park

 

If your visiting ship parks at terminal 1 (RCL) this is even walkable …. otherwise a short ride

 

Jetty Park is adjacent to the south jetty of the port. Once on the beach here you could walk nearly 40 miles south on unbroken beach to Sebastian Inlet … At Jetty Park you'll find concessions with food (operated by Fish Lips one of the port area popular spots), showers, rentals, life guards (seasonal) and a long fishing pier.

I agree with the Capt. Jetty Park is also my favorite beach!

Thank you!

Thank you!

 

Agree with Capt BJ.

Not only are there many things to do here, but you did not mention what time of year you were coming. You might want to review options other than the beach.

 

In winter, we can get temps between 40c and 70c, and unlike South Florida, ideal beach weather is not given.

The ocean is packed with Canadians swimming in January!!! So it depends where you come from!

 

But yes, there has to be plan B on beach day!
