Book Now Looking for Port Canaveral parking during your cruise? The good news is that you’ll have plenty of choice across all price ranges. These days, Port Canaveral has turned into one of the busiest — and most popular — ports in the entire nation. Millions of passengers each year take cruises from the terminals near Orlando. Of course, that means millions of people each year have to make their way to the port and many drive their vehicle. And since these folks need a place to park, a number of parking lots have sprung up to offer you a spot while you enjoy your cruise. One thing you should know — the port sits in a large complex on its own, meaning space for third-party parking lots right next to the port is sparse. However, the port does offer parking of its own at your ship, but it can be expensive. There are other options that are more affordable, as long as you don’t mind a shuttle ride to the terminal. Most shuttles are quick trips (less than 10 minutes) and can drop you off right at the ship. Parking lots include these rides for free in their rates. Below, we cover your parking lot options, along with details of each lot to help you find the right spot for you. Port Canaveral Parking Options for a CruiseNote: Most lots in the area charge parking fees for both the day you arrive and the day you leave. So if you take a 7-day cruise (e.g., departing Sunday afternoon and returning back the following Sunday morning), you will be charged for eight days of parking. Rates below are estimated (including taxes/fees) and are subject to change. Port Canaveral Official Parking Parking is payable via credit card. Disabled parking is free of charge, if your vehicle has special equipment such as ramps or foot/hand controls, have a Florida Toll Exemption Permit, or have a Florida Disabled Veteran license plate. More details are here. Given the proximity of the lots to the cruise terminal, we wouldn’t blame anyone for paying the higher prices. However, cheaper options are available if you’re looking to save.
