Jghendrick24 Posted April 20, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Hello! We will be cruising on the Mariner next January. As we are coming from New York, we will be driving our motorhome down. Can anyone tell me if you can park a motorhome at the Port Canaveral parking garage? Also, anyone know of any campgrounds in Cocoa Beach? Thanks in advance! jules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedrunkrock Posted April 20, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 20, 2004 There is motorhome parking, I believe the cost will be 2x as much as the regular car parking as it takes up 2 parking spaces at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqusis Posted April 20, 2004 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2004 I don't think you can get it in the parking garage, probably too high, but you can park it in the gated area beside the garage. thedrunkrock is correct in that fees are based on length $10 per day for vehicles up to 20 ft in length and $20 if over 20 feet.

nosnobunny Posted April 20, 2004 #4 Share Posted April 20, 2004 There is a little known secret with some Florida counties. They often have county parks that are not well known or advertised. Some even have overnight camping. Check out some of the counties near Cocoa Beach. Good luck! Beth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bld24 Posted April 20, 2004 #5 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Here is a link to some of the camping areas around Port Canaveral. There are lots of smaller places in the area that aren't listed. I would suggest Jetty Park, but they book way in advance, so I'd check it out ASAP. January is big time "snow bird" season. Alot of people book a year or more in advance.
