orchestrapal Posted May 23, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Kennedy Space Center is worth seeing. After that CC makes a great sea day because it is usually hot, hot, hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mura Posted May 23, 2017 #4 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Another vote for the Space Center. It's well worth a visit ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ka Honu Posted May 23, 2017 #5 Share Posted May 23, 2017 If the Space Center isn't your cup of tea, you might want to check out an airboat tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginabab Posted May 23, 2017 #6 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Try to reserve lunch with an astronaut at the Space Center Quite memorable, and you get to meet and greet an awesome space pioneer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Caroldoll Posted May 23, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Thanks a million. I had thought of the Space Center. Airboat--wow, I always wanted that. It will be April--yes, probably hot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetchpeople Posted May 23, 2017 #8 Share Posted May 23, 2017 April weather: maybe in the 80's and not that humid. The Space Center is a must do; anything and everything else pales by comparison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteerageJoe Posted May 23, 2017 #9 Share Posted May 23, 2017 There's much to do in the area! Some of the activities are easier if you dock at terminal 1 or 3.

Mura Posted May 23, 2017 #10 Share Posted May 23, 2017 As to the weather, we were there on May 4, 2015 and I don't recall very hot weather. Definitely t-shirt and no jacket! My diary doesn't indicate what the weather was either way. It definitely was hotter in Central America! Mura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare msn123 Posted May 24, 2017 #11 Share Posted May 24, 2017 We were there this past April. Weather was perfect. Highly recommend the Kennedy Space Center. Did the ship's tour and it was terrific. (And you know we usually like to do our own thing.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potterhill Posted May 24, 2017 #13 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Love love love the space centre. Went this past March for second time. Much new since our first visit about 15 years ago. I wouldn't consider anything else unless you have been there recently. And this from someone who is not always keen on "touristy" stuff.

Rare Caroldoll Posted May 25, 2017 Author #14 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Thank you. That is first on my list. I am happy to hear it wasn't that hot! My DH appreciates cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a comprehensive Guide to Port Canaveral Shore Trips for Visiting Cruisers Keep in mind that Oceania docks away from where any of the action is. I think it's terminal 7, but not sure. We were there last month and put in another vote for the Space Center if that's your type of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PaulMCO Posted May 29, 2017 #17 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Kennedy Center --- April is certainly better than May -- boy is it hot now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted May 29, 2017 #18 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Last year it was high 70's low 80's too hot for me so we relaxed on the ship Charleston was worse with the humidity I am good to about 75F prefer less humid places :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mura Posted May 29, 2017 #19 Share Posted May 29, 2017 I guess we were lucky in both ports in late April 2015 -- weather was warm but not awful. We had a great private tour in Charleston and then a ship's tour to the Kennedy Space Center. I've already posted that we recommend the Space Center as a Grade "A" tour spot but I forgot to mention one of the highlights of the day. We were having our lunch outside on a terrace and saw another family come to a table and empty their trays. Before we knew it, a crow flew over to their table and stole some food. We became more alert to our avian "friends" ... I'm with Lyn in being averse to high humidity -- I guess that comes from having been born and raised in Los Angeles. Florida has always been difficult for me because of the humidity ... Mura P.S. I hope this isn't a double post! I did check and didn't see my original post (which I couldn't remember if I'd "submitted") so I'm hoping you'll only see this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
