Shuttle & Rocket launches:
Plan your trip around a rocket launch from Cape Canaveral Air Station or a space shuttle launch from Kennedy Space Center. The rocket launch pads can be seem from the 2nd floor balcony or on the beach. The oceanfront house is located close enough to either launch type that the window will rattle !!!
Orlando Attractions / Disney World / NASCAR:
Cocoa Beach - Cape Canaveral area is the closest beach to Orlando attactions such as Disney World, Sea World, the Orlando Convention center, and Universal Studios. The drive time is about 45 minutes from the house. Orlando airport is only 30 minutes away.
Daytona Speedway is only 50 minutes North of this area and we have less traffic and people than Daytona Beach !!!!
Beach Time:
The beaches here are not crowded like the ones in Europe according to our international guests. The beaches here are mainly for a slower paced family-type activities, if you want a 'party' atmosphere try Daytona or South Florida beaches which have a greater night life which also includes higher prices and heavier traffic.
