March 18, 2026 – Today the Brevard Zoo has exciting news, but it is no surprise to anyone who has ever spent any time in this gem of an attraction.
Named the #5 best zoo in the U.S. — the seventh year in a row that it has been near the top of the list — Brevard Zoo in Viera is a wonderful place for animals and the people who love them. Let’s get the details from the official Brevard Zoo release:
“Today, Brevard Zoo was named the No. 5 zoo in the United States by USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards. In addition, the Zoo’s membership program was named the No. 4 membership program.”

“A panel of experts worked with 10Best’s editorial team to choose the nominees for each category, and the top 10 winners were determined by popular vote.”

“This was the seventh year in a row that Brevard Zoo was nominated as one of the best zoos in the United States by these awards.”

Opening its doors in 1994, Brevard Zoo was constructed by the community as a place to reconnect with wildlife. Over the last 30 years, the Zoo has built on that start to become a force for animal wellbeing, conservation and education.”

Brevard Zoo is one of the best in the country and it’s right in your backyard in Viera on Florida’s Space Coast.

]]>Designed to accommodate passengers sailing from Port Canaveral’s Cruise Terminals 5 and 6, a $93 million new parking facility is the largest and most complex parking garage ever constructed at the Port, with the 13-story facility scheduled to open in fall 2026.

Once the new garage is in service, Port Canaveral will offer nearly 17,500 parking spaces across eight different garages and surface lots port wide to accommodate cruise guests’ parking needs, further solidifying its distinction as one of the country’s leading drive-to markets.
Encompassing more than 1.2 million total square feet, the new garage will feature eight extra-large elevators, each able to accommodate multiple passengers and their luggage. Twin two-lane vehicle ramps will expedite vehicular traffic through the garage floors, while two vehicle connecting bridges will allow access to the adjacent recently constructed CT6 west garage. In addition, a pedestrian bridge will provide passengers with easy access to the Cruise Terminal 5 entrance.
The world’s busiest cruise port, Port Canaveral is currently home to seven leading cruise brands operating over 1,000 sailings from 18 ships, including some of the newest, largest, and most technically advanced ships in the world offering a wide range of itineraries, from weekend getaways to week-long adventures and beyond, visiting some of the world’s most spectacular destinations.
