    This park is so far, for me, the closest beach -access- coming from East Orlando area, and it's…read morefree parking. Also I found that area of the beach gets a lot less crowded that if you go south in cape canaveral/cocoa beach, and it is free parking again, I like that - also they have decent - bathrooms. They have a picnic area. Outdoor shower to rinse out, and a ramp access to the beach. It's Near jetty park and also you can catch a good view of the space launch, and cruises going out of the port. They don't have a lifeguard station at all in this area of the beach that I recall tho. the parking fills fast, need to get there early in the morning, or sometimes go later in the afternoon. Recommended.

    This little hidden gem is one of my favorite places to park for free when visiting the beach. Of…read morecourse, the free parking is the main reason but beach access is really good and it offers free public restrooms. The women's restroom has 2 stalls and 1 sink. There is one pavilion and a set of showers to rinse the sand off before getting back into your vehicle. This is about all of the amenities that you'll get here so anything you need you'll have to bring with you - chairs, umbrellas, a cooler full of snacks and water, sunscreen, etc. You won't find a lifeguard or probably too many tourists here either. The parking lot is small, so it is best to arrive earlier in the day to get a spot, although, sometimes closer to the evening there are spots available, too.

It is located right along the Banana River between Port Canaveral and Ron Jon's. The entire property is well-kept and manicured. It features a nice paved walking and jogging path for a workout or a peaceful stroll. Between the walking path and the river there is a covered walkway with pavilions that stretch along the water's edge. While manatee sightings can be hit or miss, the general peace and the chance to spot other creatures like dolphins and wading birds make a trip to this location worthwhile. Right off the parking lot, a fun detail that adds character to the park is the very nice statue of turtles. Taller than an average person. The park provides a good size parking lot that can comfortably fit about 25 cars, which is a huge plus, ensuring easy access even during slightly busier times. While the park does have bathrooms, they were unfortunately not the cleanest on the day of my visit. OVerall, Manatee Sanctuary Park is a nice place for visitors looking for beautiful scenery, and excellent paths for exercise. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing outdoor escape.

    We are extremely disappointed with our experience on the Blue Lagoon Island Shark Encounter and…read moreSnorkel with Beach Day excursion, which we booked through our cruise ship (Oasis of the Seas - Royal Caribbean). We absolutely do not recommend this excursion to anyone considering it. After a 25-minute boat ride from the port, we arrived at the island and were given wristbands and the scheduled time for our shark encounter. While waiting, we explored and observed the open dolphin and sea lion areas, which were the only highlight of the trip. When it was time for the shark encounter, we were led to a secluded area that is supposedly reserved for this excursion. A group was already in the water interacting with a shark -- holding it, posing for individual and group photos, and getting what looked like a full experience. We were told to enter the water and wait for our turn. Despite the cold water, we were excited and ready. Then everything changed. After the first group finished, the instructor -- who was visibly tired -- abruptly ended the proper interaction experience. He got out of the water, sat on the stairs, and told us he wouldn't be doing the same with our group. Instead, each person was rushed through a 30-second photo opportunity from the stairs. There was no explanation about the sharks, no actual interaction, and we were explicitly told not to touch or engage with them beyond a quick photo pose. That was it. This was not a real animal encounter. It was a bait-and-switch photo op disguised as an excursion. It felt completely disorganized and dismissive. We expressed our concerns to both a supervisor and a manager on the island, who acknowledged that our group did not receive the standard experience. They told us to follow up with the excursion desk onboard, which we did. This entire experience felt like false advertising and extremely poor customer service. We paid for an immersive shark interaction and got a rushed photo opportunity instead. It's unacceptable, especially given the premium cost and the high expectations set by Royal Caribbean and Blue Lagoon Island. Save your money. This was one of the biggest disappointments of our trip.

    At port, starting the excursion felt very unorganized. We were pointed to the back of several of…read morethe wrong lines, till we finally found the correct one. We must have wasted at least an hour waiting before we even began the boat trip to the island. On the boat, someone fell down ill right by the Captains house. He just looked through the window at the person, including all the bosun that were there in the immediate area. Finally someone came from the back of the boat to render aid, but that took way too long and showed lack of any urgency by the staff in the immediate area of this person. We enjoyed doing the dolphin encounter, but the trainer seemed annoyed the entire time. There was no exciting engagement, just someone who wanted to give you the bare minimum. Photography of the encounter felt rushed. 20 photos and a video or two later, they wanted an absurd $130. Staff on the island just seemed distant and on their phones or talking with each other, not interested in engaging with any of us. On the way back, the boat his some choppiness on the water. People seated on the sides and front of the boat were getting soaked by sea water. Rather than the staff lower the windows and securing the front screen, they all hung out in the rear of the boat on their phones. The captain laughed. No desire to make our already crowded boat ride comfortable.Then they all split some loose money bills and stood holding the cash as we exited the boat looking for tips.
