About Park Port Canaveral

Leaving your car for a week is one of those small worries that sits at the back of your mind on the drive down. Our shuttle drops you and your luggage curbside at your ship, and we keep an eye on your car until you're back.

Arrivals open at 9:30am on sailing days. We're bringing that morning's guests back to their cars first, and once those spaces clear, yours is ready. Arrive for the check-in time on your reservation, and no later than 2:00pm. Booking online reserves your space and costs less than driving up without one.

The lot is paved, gated, fenced, well lit, and striped into individual spaces, and it's patrolled around the clock. You park your own car and keep your keys, so nobody else moves it. We serve Carnival, Disney, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, MSC, Princess, and Celebrity.

Prefer covered parking? Our garage at the Four Points by Sheraton in Cocoa Beach keeps your car out of the sun and salt air, with the same shuttles to your ship. See garage parking

Park Port Canaveral is operated by Cocoa Beach Express, LLC, the company behind the Cocoa Beach Express airport and cruise shuttle. Our second lot, a covered garage, is at the Four Points by Sheraton in Cocoa Beach.

About Park Port Canaveral

An open-air lot in Cape Canaveral, a covered garage in Cocoa Beach, and shuttles to every cruise terminal.

Two Lots, One Standard

Off-site cruise parking done right

Every Park Port Canaveral guest gets the same shuttle fleet, the same associates at the terminal, and the same rules: you park your own car and keep your keys.

Keep Your Keys

At both lots, you park your own car and keep the keys. Nobody else moves it.

Around the Clock Security

The main lot is gated, fenced and well lit, and both lots have security cameras and are patrolled 24/7.

Every Terminal, Every Line

Shuttles from both lots run to every Port Canaveral terminal, for Carnival, Disney, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, MSC, Princess and Celebrity. Coming home, our shuttles meet your ship from 8am, with a Park Port Canaveral associate at each terminal.

Accessible Travel

The driver loads your luggage and drops you curbside at your terminal. Some shuttles have wheelchair lifts, so call (321) 868-6578 once you've booked and we'll have one ready.

Setting Sail

From the main lot

Everyone in your party checks in, then you park your own car, and we take it from there. Parking at the garage? Arrive an hour before the shuttle time you chose when booking. See garage details

Pull up to the welcome booth at the check-in time on your reservation. Your party checks in while whoever is driving stays with the car and the luggage comes out.

Park in a marked space and keep your keys. It's worth taking a photo of your spot so you can find it again in a week.

Our driver loads your bags onto an air-conditioned shuttle. Shuttles leave every 30 minutes, boarding in check-in order.

It's about five minutes to your terminal, with curbside drop-off at your ship. Your driver will tell you where to meet on the way back.

We're waiting when you dock

Coming home

No need to call us. Look for a Park Port Canaveral associate as you leave the terminal, or head to the pickup point your driver pointed out on the way in.

Who we are and how we work

Answers to the questions we get most

Who runs Park Port Canaveral?

Park Port Canaveral is operated by Cocoa Beach Express, LLC, the company behind the Cocoa Beach Express airport and cruise shuttle.

Is Park Port Canaveral part of Port Canaveral?

No. Park Port Canaveral is a private company, separate from the Canaveral Port Authority, which runs the parking garages at the cruise terminals. Our lots are off-site, with shuttles to every terminal.

Where are your lots?

Our main lot is at 500 Thurm Boulevard in Cape Canaveral, 1.5 miles from the cruise terminals. Our covered garage is at the Four Points by Sheraton, 4001 N Atlantic Avenue in Cocoa Beach, about five miles from the port. Get directions

Which cruise lines do you serve?

All seven lines that sail from Port Canaveral: Carnival, Disney, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, MSC, Princess and Celebrity. Our shuttles run to every terminal, so it doesn't matter which one your ship uses.

How much does it cost?

$14.95 a day when you book online in advance, or $16.95 a day if you drive up without a reservation. Parking is charged by the day, including the day you leave and the day you get back, so a 7-night cruise is 8 days. Booked in advance, that comes to $136.03, including the $7.50 Port Canaveral entry fee and tax.

What time can I arrive?

Arrive for the check-in time on your reservation. The main lot opens for arrivals at 9:30am on sailing days, once guests returning from that morning's ships have collected their cars, and check-in closes at 2:00pm. For comparison, the port's own garages open at 10:00am. Parking at the garage? Arrive an hour before the shuttle time you chose.
