Default Trip for Rocket launch

My wife and I want to see a rocket launch, I understand that you can view from, Canaveral National Seashore, has anyone done that? Are there tickets required? Are there any restrictions getting to this location? I know some of the other location require a KSC day pass, and the additional charge for the viewing location, but we already went through the KSC.

Thank you,
VT

You can watch the launches from Playalinda Beach in the Canaveral National Seashore for free. Clothing is optional.

Just remember these launches are very subject to cancel. Best to have a plan "B".

OK, I will bite, "clothing optional"?? Since we have recently moved to Florida, not familiar with local traditions......

LOL! I love the way you let the mental picture do the work for you.
