How To Get Here
Even though Florida's Space Coast was discovered because of its close proximity to water, we realize it's not the only way you can reach our destination. Located just 35 miles (56 km) east of Orlando, we have direct access to three major highways: Interstate I-95, highway U.S. 1, and the Beach Line Expressway (528). If you're flying the friendly skies, we're also home to Melbourne Orlando International Airport and Space Coast Regional Airport. Use our interactive map to plan your trip on our coast!
