Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 When we left the FORT we had reservations for 2 weeks at Jetty Park.When we made the reservations we knew we would be on site 321, concrete pad, w/e/s 50 amp The park has a wide assortment of site options starting with tents, no utilities at all.There are water only sites right along the channel. You can see the rigs off to the left.They have full hook - up sites with no pads(30 amp) as well as w/e only. and other sites similar to.oursThe bath houses are very nice and clean.You can go to the beachgo fishingas well as watch the Cruise ships depart.even late at nightor you can just watch all the creatures such as this guy/girlwe also saw dolphins, sea turtles and even a manatee, but I didn't have the camera and I'm not that fast with the phone. We also got to see a big event with the arrival of these container cranes. Every VIP was down to watch their arrivalI highly recommend it as a place to visit, but reserve early it fills up real fast.<br /> Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Can anyone visit for a couple hours to watch the ships? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted March 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Can anyone visit for a couple hours to watch the ships?Absolutely. You can visit the park itself all day, non county residents pay $10.00 for a pass that lets you fish, (if you stay on the pier no license is needed) go to the beach, picnic etc, they even have a snack bar at the beach and it even carries a few brews.. It is only about an hour from the FORT via the 417/528 toll roads. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted March 29, 2014 Report Share Posted March 29, 2014 Hey, I've got a question, does it look like folks camp there and just leave their campers/MHs on a site while they go on a cruise? I mean 39 a night is not much more than parking at the port, you have electricity for your rig. Do they have a shuttle to the port? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think I even saw one that said "Pay what you want". :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Thanks for the report, Dave. I always look at the Jetty Park campground every time we cruise out of Port Canaveral. I've always wondered what it would be like to camp there. It looks like a great place to camp if you want a place near a beach. Plus, there are a ton of restaurants and attractions very close to there. And you can't beat those prices! TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also there is a wonderful seafood market, Seafood Atlantic, they have a wonderful Seafood Salad that is close to 95% seafood and their crab cakes are 98% crab. They also serve various dishes on their patio. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beckers 1,136 Posted April 1, 2014 Report Share Posted April 1, 2014 I have it all figured out. I'm going to win Jason/Curt's/Donnie's/golf cart contest on FB and then after I enjoy my fort stay, we are going to rent something and stay here. Now I just need to win and my plan is perfect.
