Carnival cruise parking
Five minutes to Cruise Terminals 3 and 6
Off-site parking 1.5 miles from Port Canaveral, from $14.95 a day. Free shuttle to whichever terminal your Carnival ship is sailing from, and you keep your keys.
Carnival at Port Canaveral
Two terminals, one shuttle
Carnival sails from Cruise Terminals 3 and 6, and they are not near each other. Terminal 3 is on Christopher Columbus Drive off Exit 54B. Terminal 6 is on Charles Rowland Drive off Exit 54A, roughly two miles away across the port. Which one your ship uses can change between sailings.
It makes no difference to your parking. Our main lot is 1.5 miles out, and our covered garage at the Four Points in Cocoa Beach is about five miles away. From either one, the shuttle takes you to whichever terminal you're sailing from and collects you there when you're back. You don't need to know which one when you book.

Carnival questions
Which terminal does Carnival use at Port Canaveral?
Carnival sails from Cruise Terminals 3 and 6. Terminal 3 is at 220 Christopher Columbus Drive, off Exit 54B. Terminal 6 is at 9241 Charles Rowland Drive, off Exit 54A. They are on opposite sides of the port and assignments can change, so check your cruise documents before you set off.
Does it matter which terminal I'm sailing from?
Not for parking. Park Port Canaveral's main lot is 1.5 miles from Cruise Terminals 3 and 6, about a five-minute shuttle ride to either. Our covered garage at the Four Points in Cocoa Beach is about five miles out, around 15 minutes by shuttle.
How much is parking for a Carnival cruise?
Park Port Canaveral's main lot is $14.95 a day booked in advance, or $16.95 without a reservation. Parking is charged daily, so a 7-night sailing is 8 days. Booked in advance, that comes to $136.03, including the port entry fee and tax. Prefer covered parking? Our garage at Four Points by Sheraton Cocoa Beach starts as low as $12 a day, with the shuttle included for up to five.
