Only One Afternoon and Evening in Cocoa Beach - What To Do?

We have booked a one night precruise stay at The Hilton on Cocoa Beach this September. We are staying at WDW the week prior to our cruise and so we should arrive at Cocoa Beach around 4-5pm.

Due to such a limited amount of tme to explore and experience CB what would be your ';must do and see%26#39;s';?

Also as a side thing, am I right in thinking it will cost approx $15 for a taxi to the port?

Many thanks

Head to the Cocoa Beach pier. Thats were most of the action is. Good places to eat and it%26#39;s a fun place to go.

Only One Afternoon and Evening in Cocoa Beach - What To Do?

We spent four nights in Cocoa Beach in March and really enjoyed spending time at the pier. Great food, great drinks and great view.

Relax at the beach at the Hilton and take a nice long stroll on it. It will be sunet which is beautiful time of day at the beach. You%26#39;ll be wore out after disney so I would just relax and take it easy. Go out for a casual dinner or order in to your room. The best thing about Cocoa Beach is the BEACH as long as you see that, you%26#39;ve done the ';must see.';

The Pier, the beach, but you shouldn%26#39;t miss the famous Ron-Jon%26#39;s surf shop either.

Some great ideas here, i reaally cant wait to experience Cocoa Beach. Im wondering if i should cut my last day at Disney short and head to CB first thing in the morning.

Please help me choose, another Disney day or a relaxing beach day? (Two adults, no kids, just kids at heart!)

The advice here is amazing, thank you all so much

Maybe after a week at the parks you will have had enough of Disney magic. No telling until you and the family get there. You can go on the beach in the afternoon, the pier at night and Ron-Jon%26#39;s is open 24 hours.

Cut Disney by a day is my vote... or 7 days!

Sterling Casino Cruise is a nice and fun afternoon. Drinks and dinner at Grills at the port after the cruise. The Cocoa Beach Pier, some shops, restaurants, bars and great views. You could easily spend a couple hours in Ron Jons.

I was at the beach this morning. The waves are amazing.

Once a month my husband and I get a sitter for date night. Usually we end up at Cocoa beach. I would say after a week at WDW, you will probably enjoy the change.

oh whats the Sterling Casino Cruise?

Thanks

The Sterling is a gambling boat. I agree with all of these post but would add some time at the port. Sit outside at the Tiki for breakfast and watch the ships come and go, or any one of the places to eat and party late into the evening.
