I want to see a lift-off. I don't want to buy a Cape Canaveral Ticket. This is a website that names the best places to watch the lift-off for free.
The Best Viewing Locations for Kennedy Space Center Launches | USA Today
Do me a solid, if you know the best spot tell me. These are the spots USA recommends:
Brevard County Parks
Cocoa Beach Parks
Titusville Parks
And the Roadside Locations:
Patrick Air Force Base's website notes that State Road 528 provides a clear view of the rocket launch pads, as the road approaches the Port Canaveral area, as does State Road A1A in Cocoa Beach and U.S. Highway 1 in Titusville between State Roads 405 and 402. Drivers choosing to watch a rocket launch from the roadside must use caution when pulling off the road and should select a viewing location that does not impede the flow of traffic.
Additional Locations
Jetty Park (portcanaveral.com) in Port Canaveral is home to public restrooms, picnic tables, a refreshment center and a campground and one of NASA's recommended viewing locations. The park charges a parking or camping fee for all vehicles. Area boaters are able to watch launches from the Intracoastal Waterway and non-restricted portions of the Indian River and Mosquito Lagoon. The Coast Guard provides information on restricted areas on Marine Band Channel 16 as each launch approaches. The Kennedy Space Center offers launch viewing tickets for select rocket launches.
