Mancuso Posted April 3, 2005 #1 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Aside from renting a car, are there any mass transit options for getting from Port Canaveral to the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area? Such as bus or train? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandis Posted April 22, 2005 #2 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I was also looking on how to get to Ft. Lauderdale from Port Canaveral. Amtrak seems not to be an option, as the closest station probably would be Kissimmee or Orlando. Greyhound has a stop in Cocoa, at an Exxon Station. 5 busses to Ft. Lauderdale stop there each day. Travel time is between 3 and 5 hours, depending on which bus you take... The fare is $40. According to Mapquest, it is about 13 Miles from Port Canaveral to Cocoa and would take about half an hour. Not sure how much a taxi would be for that distance. Maybe someone else has another idea for an affordable transfer option from Port Canaveral to Ft. Lauderdale?

Capt_BJ Posted April 23, 2005 #3 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Rent a car .... there is nothing else you'd want. Only train runs down mid-state....do you really want to do a GreyHound???? Rent a car - you are talking a 1 day, drop off,,,,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandis Posted April 24, 2005 #4 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Car rental is not an option, I don't have a drivers license. Maybe the OP is in a similiar situation. Public transport is quite good in Switzerland, so I don't need it usually... :-) I guess I have to take the Grayhound then. Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nliedel Posted April 24, 2005 #5 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Have you looked into flying? I have seen some good rates on Southwest from Orlando to MIA or FLL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted April 25, 2005 #6 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Then yes, look into flying to Orlando - The Disney Shuttle from airport to the port is worth the bucks as it makes everything easy. And I've never seen them fill the bus. Or look up a limo company....worth a shot - people do lot's of crazy things in South Florida Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandis Posted April 25, 2005 #7 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I will definitly take the DCL shuttle from WDW to Port Canaveral. But Greyhound probably is still the least expensive and fastest way to get to Fort Lauderdale from Port Canaveral after the cruise. Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
