A THRILL RIDE OF A CITY

Cruise from Orlando (Port Canaveral), Florida

Most people know Orlando as America’s theme park capital. While a day (or several) dedicated to all your favourite rides and shows is a must for any holiday from Orlando, this shining city on Florida’s Space Coast offers so much more than that. If you’re cruising from Port Canaveral, get to know the area’s other wonders – like its locally loved surf spots, sprawling citrus groves, off-road motor trails and emerald golf courses. Start your day by watching the sunrise from the sands of the Canaveral National Seashore. Then grab breakfast at a cosy café in Historic Cocoa Village. Keep your eyes peeled for alligators as you zip through the St John River marshlands on an exhilarating airboat ride. Or climb to the top of Exploration Tower for panoramic views of Port Canaveral, the cruise port near Orlando. And don’t forget to visit the Kennedy Space Centre Visitor Complex in Port Canaveral, where you can learn all about space travel and see both the Space Shuttle Atlantis and the Saturn V moon rocket.
