Default Where to Watch Rocket Launch?

Hello, we are Villages newbies. We'll be hosting my wife's parents next week and want to spend a day checking out the Atlantic coast around Daytona. We see a rocket will be launched on the 13th around Noon.

Due to mobility issues, we don't want to venture into the Kennedy/Cape Canaveral property. Is there a good place(s) where we might just be able to pull the car over and watch the launch?

I have to think even sitting in a commercial parking lot, say in Titusville, might work?

Thank you!

There’s an App for that. Download Space Coast Launch.

It will give you the data on upcoming launches and locations to view those launches.

Good to have plans for the area…no all launch 🚀 times work. I will say while at Epcot late at night watched a launch…it was spectacular
