Things To Do in Port Canaveral - Immersive Experience Museum

Many visitors are unaware of what to do in Port Canaveral while visiting the area.
There are tons of brochures in the hotels promoting various attractions. It can be overwhelming.

Do you know of any attractions within a few miles of Port Canaveral that are nowhere in Florida or the East Coast?

The answer is The Kennedy Space Center and The Wizard of Oz Museum.

Although there are other attractions and things to do nearby, such as miniature golf courses, tree climbing, escape rooms, dinosaur and military museums, surfing, beaches, and bioluminescence kayak activities, they all exist in other parts of Florida.

A few times a month is a chance to see a rocket launch, but it has to schedule activity, and launches get scrubbed due to the weather condition.

Kennedy Space Center

Visitors with more than five hours to spend and are willing to walk opted for the Kennedy Space Center, with admission prices usually over $75 per person and parking fees.
Although there are other Space Centers in the country to experience, they are in other parts of the country and could not be experienced anywhere else on the East Coast.
There are many online resources covering this attraction in more detail.

The Wizard of Oz Museum

Most tourists are familiar with the classic movie The Wizard of Oz, with some being fans.
The first thing that comes to mind is why I want to visit.
I can watch movies at home for free, listen to songs for free online, or learn everything online about the famous film.
Yes, it is a true statement.
At the museum, we cover everything else that is not known to the general public.
For example, do you know a book written almost 40 years before the movie production?
Are you aware of the continuation of the story in additional 40 Oz books, or what scenes were omitted from the book and never made into a movie?

A must-visit to the museum is for a curious person interested in history, politics, literature, collectibles, art, theaters, films, or the latest computer media.
For history buffs, we tie the story of The Wizard of Oz to American history of the early 20 century.
We show you a parallel between characters from Wizard of Oz and the political movement from silver to gold stand in the USA.
For book lovers, you will learn about a whole universe of books written by the authors of the Oz books series.
Collector lovers will be amazed by the display of memorabilia that exceeds Star Wars or Disney’s memorabilia and see pieces used in the 1939 movie.
The art lover immersed in Van Gogh’s paintings will be in paradise. Theaters and film lovers enjoy seeing original props and learning about early theater and film production.
Lastly, for computer and media creation lovers, you will be mind-boggling how the Immersive experience scenes are created and displayed using over 30 laser projectors.
Since opening in 2022, the museum had over 20 thousand visitors. The majority of visitors had a great time at the museum ad left over 1200 Google reviews that we encourage you to read. With a 4.9 star rating, it is the highest-rank museum in Florida.
Of course, we created a special way to entertain kids also, which ranks the Wizard of Oz Museum as the #1 Children’s Museum in Florida on TripAdvisor.
In conclusion, the Wizard of Oz museum tour is one of the best activities on the Space Coast due to its uniqueness, accommodating any age visitors.
