I was ready to book the fun and sun in CB in Port can, but I just read it is a rip off? Is it true it is just a Holiday Inn? Is there a beach @ the hotel with facilities? Has anyone tried the pontoon ride or anything, but the theme parks? thanks, BK

We did the pontoon boat ride. It was a nice relaxing trip around the shallow estuary. We got to see some nice homes and did see a lot of birds and one manatee and a dolphin. We enjoyed it, but I don't think kids would be too excited. I think there is also an airboat ride from Canaveral also. We did one in Miami and it was great. You might consider that if you have some beach plans for Miami.

You can always get a cab and go to the beach. Its only about 20 mins away. I've got family there, but... shh they don't know we're coming. Not enogh time to go everywhere. The beach is very nice, there's also surfing lessons if your into that, and some other things.

Hi,
You didn't say when u were cruising, hope I didn't miss it.

I own a condo in Cocoa Beach, and just wanted to let you know that CB is very "public friendly" you don't have to pay for any excursions. There are public parks all along the beach with facilities. I recommend ALAN SHEPARD PARK. LORI WILSON PARK is nice too. Also the Pier is great too. There are many resturants all along the beach road, and eats aren't too expensive. Take a taxi from the Port . . . it is cheap, and a short ride. Check out www.cocoabeach.com to see places in the area.

It you like to party at night, Coconuts in CB, or GRILLS in Cape Canaveral are hot spots. Take taxi's they are cheap, and these places are not far. OH SHUCKS is right at the Pier if you don't want to travel.

Have a great trip.

Thanks for the tip. I hope we have time to visit grills. But most likely we won't, I'll have to hit that one when i come down in April or May..... We're doing the Disney thing this time around and i don't think we'll have time to do both since we're there from only 9 am till 8 pm. We're sailing on 10/3/04... i can't wait.... THANX AGAIN!!
