Right on the port you can sit back on the beautiful beach, watch the ships come and go, do a little fishing or just relax. A nice campground is on the property and overall this is the best public park in the area.

Found it very deserted, dreary, and I don't like the fact that pets aren't allowed. As far as parks go, nothing to write home about and definitely not worth another trip. The one good thing was seeing some turtles in the water.

Lovely place to hang out and watch the cruise ships depart. Take a picnic lunch or ride a bike around the park. Fish off the pier or just watch as others enjoy the beach. Camping, with or without motor home, is available as well.

We camp here a several times a year, sometimes because to attend one of the local events and other times just to relax. Great place to watch the boats, big and little, go in and out of the port inlet. Campground kept clean, restrooms can get a bit busy for showers at the end of the afternoon, but you just... More

This park has a great wide beach with nice sand. It also has camping for folks and a nice playground for the kids. One of the unusual things is that is the entrance into Port Canaveral so you get to see all of the fishing boats and cruise ships heading in/out of the port. If you time it right, you... More
