For a smaller airport, this museum boasts a fine collection of restored military aircraft from the U.S. and other nations. Many of them are still in flying condition and we arrived just after a WWII B-25 had flown that day. Timing is everything. The staff and docents were extremely knowledgeable and instructive. Amazing to see one of the ONLY P-82 fighter aircraft from the WWII. This is a pair of P-51 Mustangs assembled together in a twin fuselage configuration. The museum does not sit on a major highway, but just follow the signs, as it is well worth the visit.

American Space Museum & Space Walk of Fame

TOURS LIMITED TO 10, 12 & 2 DAILY BECAUSE OF COVID - RESERVATIONS RECOMMENDED! www.spacewalkoffame.com/book A museum dedicated to the Space Workers of the Canaveral Spaceport who built the rockets and launch pads that allowed the US to reach the Moon, and send probes to the outer planets. Many of the artifacts in the museum are simply on "long term loan" by those now retired space workers. We keep things exciting and personal with the opportunity to talk with people who worked there and to see what is new and coming in the American Space Program.

This museum in Titusville is an absolute "must see." It is much larger inside than it would appear from the outside, so give yourself a couple of hours to see it. The volunteer docents are retired NASA employees who can give you an amazing tour and answer every question with their first hand knowledge. The museum has the original launch consoles and artifacts from the Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and Shuttle programs, including a tire from a space shuttle. Many of the artifacts were being thrown out by NASA and were saved by the people now volunteering at this museum because they knew the significance of these items. There is also an interactive area for kids and a nice gift shop. It is open Monday-Saturday from 10:00 am - 5:00 pm and offers a senior and a military discount (with ID).

Pritchard House

Reviewed By jtm312fl

If you are in the Titusville/NASA/Kennedy Space Center area and you appreciate local history, take some time to visit the Pritchard House in downtown Titusville. Built in 1891, the local historic society has restored it to its original stature. Call ahead for a reservation for a private group tour. Ask for docent Sandi as she is a local resident who is so knowledgeable, interesting, and charming. She will spend at least an hour with you, provides insights, and answer questions. You walk throughout the two story house on tour, and visit the gardens on your own.

Definitely a hidden gem! The service staff was friendly and we were sat rather quickly, Maggie our server was very attentive and had a great attitude. The food was well prepared with good portion size and the prices were reasonable. We orderd the cheeseburger for my 4 year old, and then shared the buffalo cauliflower and a flatbread and had plenty left over for the next day. The birthday cake beer treat was over the top and was greatly appreciated as were celebrated my birthday. The craft beers were also amazing, we did a flight including the Robobaut, Pleasure Chest, Transitive IP, Pineapple Pants and Nitro Herd Mentality were delicious and highly recommended.

Sand Point Park

Reviewed By Luci_J_M - Chadds Ford, United States

The Max Brewer Bridge was a terrific spot to walk onto to watch a rocket launch. You can't park your car or stop your car on the bridge so you need somewhere close by to park. Sand Point Park is that place because it's right across the street and it's free. The only negative I'd give is that when I plugged the address of the park into my navigation system, it took me to the entrance on the opposite side of the park from the bridge which was closed and locked off. My husband found the bridge on his phone navigation and guided us there and we saw the entrance to the park where we could park -- it is right across the street from the bridge. We saw a nighttime rocket launch, which was amazing and so memorable! The whole sky was lit up like it was daytime and it was a clear night so you could watch the rocket for a pretty long time as it ascended in the sky. There are other places where you could see the launch like on beaches or other parks that are closer, but because the launch we were going to was at night and some of the websites for the places said that they were open dawn to dusk, we just didn't know whether we could go on those places at night. The Max Brewer bridge was great! We might explore some of those other sites for another launch to be even closer. Here's another tip if you're into trying to watch a rocket launch -- download the Space Launch Now app (this is much, much better than the Launch Console app). It will inform you of exact countdown and if the launch is rescheduled.
