When do you sail?

Prices and availability open on Booking.com for the night you need. Most Port Canaveral sailings board between late morning and early afternoon, so the night before is the safe choice.

Quick answer

The port charges $20 a day plus tax, counting the day you leave and the day you return: about $160 for a 7-night cruise. Homewood Suites and Country Inn charge $12 a night to leave the car, TownePlace and Hampton Inn Cocoa Beach $15, and the Radisson sells packages with up to 8 nights of parking and a round-trip shuttle.

Go Port packages

Go Port’s Snooze Park Cruise packages bundle a night at a partner hotel (Holiday Inn Express Cocoa Beach, Ocean Landings, Fairfield Inn and Holiday Inn Titusville, Quality Inn Kennedy Space Center) with parking at Go Port’s lot in Merritt Island and shuttles between the lot and the ship. Prices start at about $164–300 in total. The car stays at Go Port’s lot, not at the hotel, and lot-to-ship shuttles run 10:30 AM to noon.

Hotel or port?

For a 7-night cruise the port costs about $160 plus tax (8 days at $20). Homewood or Country Inn costs about $84–96 for the same week, and the hotel is 1 mile from the south terminals. Go Port’s own lot starts at $9.99 a day with shuttles.

Before you book

  • Reserve the parking with the room. Some hotels cap cruise parking and fill up on busy weekends.
  • Ask about tall vehicles if you have a roof box or van.
  • Check the shuttle for return morning so you can get back to your car.

For the port’s own garages and rules, see the Port Canaveral parking guide.
