In a nutshell
I love this place!
grandmaR Says: under constructionWhen we came in to Port Canaveral, I saw a park along the side of the entrance. I think this was Jetty ParkJetty Park is one of the most popular recreation spots in Brevard County. Besides the 4.5 acre family beach with its designated areas for swimming and...
BeachDaisy Says: The beaches of Cape Canaveral can be considered a hidden treasure of the Space Coast, since many people use the beaches of Cocoa Beach, the next city south. The key to this hidden treasure? The locals work, on their own time, to maintain its beauty, especially the dunes. We...
cjg1 Says: The pool on the Sovereign of the Seas was small but very nice. One section was for kids and the other was for over 18 guests. There were two jacuzzis at withe end of the pool. The first time we went in the pool Liz was surprised it was salt water.....she figured it would be...
Residence Inn By Marriott Cape Canaveral Cocoa Beach

cjg1 Says: The Windjammer is the ship's Buffet. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. The Windjammer is set up with different food stations with appetizers, entrees, desserts, side dishes and beverages. The food here is not as good as the dining room but is fine for breakfast. We had...
Ben & Jerry's: Enjoying Some Ice Cream
cjg1 Says: To our surprise and delight there was a Ben & Jerry's on board the ship. Liz and I are big Ben & Jerry's fans so this was an added bonus. After a long day of sightseeing we boarded the ship and were a bit hungry. We didn't want a meal since dinner was only a few hours off...
Illusions: Awesome Dinner on the Boat
cjg1 Says: We had some really excellent meals in the dining room. I couldn't complain about anything; the portions, the quality or the taste. The service was excellent by the wait staff; they went above and beyond to make us happy. The salmon and pork were some of my favorite entrees....
Grills Seafood Deck & Tiki Bar: Don't Miss The Fresh Seafood and the Live Music!
surfside7 Says: A waterfront eating establishment with original island cuisine. You can eat a great meal while watching the day's catches being brought in at 5 p.m.! There is always really good live entertainment on week ends. Bacon wrapped scallops or shrimp on a skewer appetizer and...
cjg1 Says: There is a shuttle from Avis that takes you from the Rental Car Office to the Port and then picks you back up on the return from the cruise. The shuttle is a quick ride about seven minutes and very comfortable (an airconditioned mini bus).
cjg1 Says: We had driven from Orlando to Port Canaveral. We returned the rental car at Avis. They were very nice and helpful. Avis has a shuttle that took us from the rental place to the port. When we arrived back from our cruise the same shuttle picked us up at the port and back to...
cjg1 Says: Port Canaveral is where the cruise ships depart. We sailed on Royal Caribean's Sovereign of the Sea. Checking in was relatively easy. We dropped our bags with the porters and proceeded to the check in area. After going through a security screening we then waited on line to...

Professional Pictures: A Photo Memory
cjg1 Says: During the cruise there are several photographers set up by the dining room and wandering inside the dining area. We stopped and posed for a few pictures. The next day our pictures were available to view and we chose the ones we wanted to buy.When we arrived in different...
On Board Shopping: An Anklet for Liz
cjg1 Says: This particular cruise ship did not have tons of shopping since it was a small vessel. They did have a jewelry store, liquor store, perfume and make up store and a genral store selling souveniers and such. The jewlery store was seling silver and gold chains by the inch. Liz...
cjg1 Says: You will never get lost on one of these cruise ships. They have maps, signs and directoris all over the ship to tell you where you are and what you are looking for. They even have ship model with a deck plan so you can see how the ship is facing at all times.
tony248 Says: Expect security at the entire space complex to be tighter than ever. If you have been there before, you will see the difference. Expect restrictions on what you can take on the tours and inspections of any bags you take into the Visitors Center. I do know that you can no...
DUNK67 Says: It never ceases to amaze me the amount of people that refuse to put on suncream and opt for nothing or even baby oil or cooking oil in the naieve belief that it will help them tan quicker. It will not, it will only make you burn and then peel quicker.A high factor sunscreen...
Naughty Naughty for your eyes only
keida84 Says: If you are over 18, in Cape Canaveral and have a sense of adventure then you really must stop at the FairVilla Megastore. Hexepatty asked us if we wanted to stop at this store as she was looking to purchase an item of lingere. We pulled into the parking lot and stopped at a...
cjg1 Says: When on this ship you must purchase your soda or buy a soda card for unlimited refils. The only free beverages are: water, iced tea, lemonade, coffee, tea and juices with breakfast. I wanted to have the option of being able to have soda so I purchased the card. They give you...
cjg1 Says: Royal Caribbean hands out an information sheet regarding customary gratuity amounts. Envelopes are provided in your stateroom the day before arrival back in the home port. You can put money in the envelopes for the appropriate staff or go to the customer service desk and...
cjg1 Says: Internet access is important to us. Liz is in school and needs to submit assignments and do homework when we are on vacation. There is an internet area on the ship but we choose to bring our own laptop. They have various packages that range from 60 minutes of time to 180...

The Space Coast - The best part about the Pier is the live music and bikinis. The food is mediocre and expensive, the draught beer is warm but the beach is great.
