Day 3

port canaveral, florida

Arrival: 11:59 - Departure: 19:00

Cape Canaveral, on Florida’s Space Coast, blends laid-back beach life with the excitement of space exploration. Just an hour east of Orlando, this barrier island offers wide Atlantic beaches alongside one of the world’s most important spaceports. The Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex is the main draw, where you can walk beneath a Saturn V rocket, see real Space Shuttles, explore interactive exhibits, and sometimes meet astronauts. If you time your visit with a rocket launch, you can watch from designated viewing areas and feel the ground shake as the rocket lifts off—an experience many visitors consider the highlight of their trip. Advance ticket reservations are recommended, especially during busy seasons or major missions. Beyond its space heritage, Cape Canaveral is rich in natural beauty. The coastline invites swimming, surfing, and sunrise walks, while the nearby Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge offers bird-watching, the chance to spot manatees, and kayaking through mangrove-lined waterways. Port Canaveral, one of the world’s busiest cruise ports, adds to the energy of the area with seafood restaurants, waterfront bars, and fishing charters. Compact and easy to get around by car or bike, Cape Canaveral pairs a relaxed coastal atmosphere with cutting-edge space history. Stay in a beachside hotel or vacation rental, savor fresh local seafood, and split your days between learning about humanity’s journey into space and unwinding by the ocean. It’s a distinctive mix of science, nature, and classic Florida coastal charm.

Day 4

perfect day cococay - bahamas

Arrival: 08:00 - Departure: 16:00

CocoCay, also known as Little Stirrup Cay, is a private island in the Bahamas and part of the Berry Islands, a chain of small cays and islands located about 55 miles north of Nassau. It is used exclusively for tourism by Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. Little Stirrup Cay sits next to Great Stirrup Cay, which has been Norwegian Cruise Line’s private island since 1977. In 2019, Royal Caribbean carried out a major $250 million USD renovation of the island. A pier was built on the north side so cruise ships can dock directly instead of relying on tenders. The east end of the island is the main hub for activities, with beaches along a coral basin where visitors can see manatees, rays, and many tropical fish. Nature trails cross the island from end to end. The renovation also added a large water park that features Daredevil’s Peak, the tallest water slide in North America.
