Florida’s Space Coast

Florida’s Space Coast is over 70 miles of family-friendly paradise located 45 minutes east of Orlando. Visitors can experience a rocket launch up close, embark on a cruise from bustling and beautiful Port Canaveral, and relax to the sound of crashing waves on uncrowded beaches.

Step into our lively downtown districts to discover unforgettable local cuisine, art, and entertainment. Enjoy the surprise of our top attractions like the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex where you’ll experience the past, present and future of space exploration. Or the Brevard Zoo where everyone can kayak and zip line through animal exhibits while contributing to the conservation of local ecosystems. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty with a guided tour of the Indian River Lagoon. Kayak with manatees, fish with dolphins and experience the summertime bioluminescence. Get wild on an alligator-seeking airboat ride or search for sea turtle tracks at sunrise.

UK holidaymakers can fly directly via TUI Airlines flights into Melbourne-Orlando International Airport (MLB) from London Gatwick, Manchester, Glasgow and Newcastle or access via Orlando International Airport (MCO). Accommodations range from oceanfront resorts to riverfront hotels with views of rocket launches to bed & breakfasts with vacation rental options, too.
