Port Canaveral is the second busiest cruise port in the world with 4.6 million cruise passengers passing through during 2004. Carnival, Disney, Royal Caribbean International, Holland America, and Norwegian Cruise Line are some of the cruise lines which regularly dock at one of the six cruise terminals. The port also bears operations for the casino ships of SunCruz Casinos and Sterling Casinos.


A world-class deep water port, Port Canaveral also has a high volume of cargo traffic. Over three million tons of bulk cargo moves through Port Canaveral each year. Commonly shipped carge includes cement, petroleum and aggregate. The port is equipped with conveyors and hoppers for loading products directly into trucks, and facilities for bulk cargo containers.

This port is rapidly growing, as these pictures will show. But the area has a  long history, going back to when native Americans hunted and fished in this area. A new historical marker was recently dedicated to the battle that was fought just a mile offshore from Port Canaveral. The battle took place when the British Navy’s HMS Sybilland and two accompanying ships came across the Continental Navy’s slow-moving and treasure-laden ship DUC DE LAZUN, headed north from Havana to Philadelphia with silver and gold for the newly independent country’s first bank. The British Navy succumbed to temptation and attacked the treasure ship but were routed by the escort ship ALLIANCE under the command of Captain John Barry. Barry would go on to become the first admiral of the new navy of the United States. (source: Canaveral Port Authority)
