    Natural Side of the Space Coast

    The first day of this two-day route explores the natural side of the Space Coast of Florida, particularly among its waterways. Enjoy the thrill of an airboat ride, and the quiet of a kayak paddle, and a bit more fun in between. In your overnight bag you'll want to bring along a bathing suit and sunscreen, a long-sleeve shirt and hat, bug repellent, walking shoes, and a sense of adventure. Oh, bring along a bite to eat for breakfast on the road, too.

    3-2-1... Blast Off On the Space Coast

The campus is Kennedy Space Center divided chronologically into Mission Zones, and you are in complete control of your destiny as you move from one to the next. Exhibits, hands-on activities, and even the chance to meet an astronaut are all within reach.
