KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Cape Canaveral

  • With Cape Canaveral car hire, you get to see one of the most interesting parts of Florida without being held back by the limitations of public transportation. Drive your car hire to sights such as the famous Kennedy Space Center, The Missile Museum or the Manatee Sanctuary Park and enjoy completely unique experiences in the region. Despite being a busy city, you can also enjoy miles of beaches with natural dunes that support the habitats of endangered species, such as sea turtles and birds. See the city from the Exploration Deck or drive alongside the Banana River with a huge alligator population.
  • When you are considering car hire in Cape Canaveral, you may find the widest variety of deals can be found at Melbourne Airport (MLB). Based an average of 38min away by car, what better solution than to fly in and drive off the airport lot with a car hire? You will be able to find a wide range of companies to assist you with car hire at the airport, including global favourites Avis, Dollar, Budget, National, Hertz, Thrifty and more.
  • With your car hire in Cape Canaveral, you will be driving on the right-hand side of the road. The roads are in great condition for the most part, and you shouldn’t find too many issues as English is the language of all signage. You should always buckle up and stay off your mobile phone when driving in Florida and stick under the blood alcohol limit of 0.08%. If it is summer when you visit, try to get a car with air conditioning, as Florida is humid and hot.
  • With any city in the States with great attractions, you will find the biggest challenge is always congestion. Cape Canaveral is not as bad as some parts of Florida, but it certainly has some frustrating times of the day such as rush hour between 06:00 and 09:00, and again the afternoons around 16:00 to 18:00. Use a GPS tracker when driving on the State Road 401, Kennedy Parkway or the NASA Parkway, as tourism also pushes up the traffic volume.
  • 25% of our users found a car hire in Cape Canaveral for £44 or less
  • Book your car hire in Cape Canaveral at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Verified travelerMar 2024
Be aware of the additional port access charge added. Also there are two budget locations close to each other. Double check you are at the one you intend.
Verified travelerJan 2024
The facility is not large, but the staff were incredibly polite and did their best to accommodate the ebb and flow of reservations. Suggest either not trying to rent a car when the cruise ships all arrive or being very patient.

If you are looking for a centralised car park, consider Center Street Car Park, Park Port Canaveral Cruise Parking and many others. You should not struggle to find a spot in Cape Canaveral, whatever the agenda holds for the day.

The vehicle and pick up were good. Shuttle service was very efficient to the port. However, a $9.99 port access fee was added to the bill. This was not parking the price that was booked originally.

Pick up was a nightmare. Took over 90 minutes to line up and get a car. Took the Budget shuttle from the cruise port. It identified only as Budget and the driver didn't advise that there are 2 locations. Of course I was at the wrong location. Paid an additional fee so I could get a car after the longest wait. The guy behind the counter wanted me to buy the toll pass for $13 per day. Said there was no option of paying if I didn't have exact change and it would cost me $10 to $15 to get to Orlando from Port Canaveral, it cost me no more than $10 and each toll had a person that was there to give change. The toll from Disney to the airport $2.75. It would have cost an additional $70 had we bought the "toll plan" as recommended. If I spent $15, it would surprise me. Drop off was a breeze. Took all of 2 minutes and the interaction was pleasant

It was extremely busy however every person on line was “priority@ except me. So every time they called someone new it was “priority”. I ended up getting passed by a lot of people and waiting for longer than I felt necessary for my car. So that felt like an insult because I am not priority because I never travel because I am a teacher. So how about we start prioritizing teachers and stop prioritizing business people. Thanks

Had a 9am appointment, there were 60-70 people there in big lines … Avis overbooked reservations vs number of cars they had. By 11am (approximately) we got a car that had no gas in it, low fuel Light on. Employees were doing there best to deal with a problem they didn’t create - but not a pleasant experience for us (with elderly wheel chair grandparents with us) or for anyone else there

There was a very long line to pick up, but the staff was very efficient and kind. Drop-off was a bit complex because it was not clear that one must access the parking and head to the 5th floor, but after figuring it out, everything was very quick and smooth. Great experience!
