Other Fun Things to Do
Take

Florida's Everglades. As you travel deep into the
wilderness, you'll glide over a sea of grass into the
pristine fresh-water eco-system of Bald Cypress Swamp,
where alligators and other wildlife abound.
Explore Cocoa Beach, made famous by "I Dream of
Jeannie," just a short drive from Port Canaveral and
south of the Kennedy Space Center. You'll be charmed by
the unique shops, many parks and 12 miles of beaches.
Get a Taste of Local Flavor
True Floridians
celebrate Florida's wild side. And there aren't many
places on earth more wild than the Everglades. Get a
