Driving in from Gainesville? Park for $12.95 a day and ride our free shuttle straight to your ship's terminal. Reserve before you leave home.
From Gainesville, FL, the drive to Port Canaveral runs about 150 miles and takes about 2 hours 20 minutes. Take FL Turnpike / SR-528 East toward the coast. Our lot sits just off SR-528 at Exit 52 (Banana River Drive), one exit before the port, so you never fight terminal traffic to drop your car. Pull in, we park you, and you step onto the shuttle.
After a about 2 hours 20 minutes drive, a parking scramble is the last thing you want. Booking online before you head out means everything is handled:
Portside is $12.95 a day, and your spot is covered from the day you arrive until you return from your cruise, with a free shuttle to your terminal. The port's own covered garages are $20.00 a day on-site if you would rather park right by the ship.
