DME will send you a packet with transportation vouchers and a map to ME,ax well as luggage tags to be placed on your bags at your departure airport. They will place an envelope on your door the night before you depart with a departure time. Be at the bus 15 minutes early.

There is no public transportation to the coast; you will need to rent car.

This is from DME FAQ's:

The Disney’s Magical Express Welcome Center is in the Main Terminal Building on the B side, Level 1 in the Ground Transportation area.

View a map of Orlando International Airport.

Take the tram from your aircraft gate and you will arrive on Level 3 of the Main Terminal Building. Proceed to B side and take the elevator or escalator down to Level 1. If you need to pick up your luggage, remember to stop on Level 2 at baggage claim.

Once you check in at the Disney’s Magical Express Welcome Center, we will direct you to your motorcoach.

Just remember to place the yellow DME tags on your luggage prior to checking them with your respective airline. You will not see these bags again until after you check into your resort.

To get to Cocoa Beach, you probably should just rent a car for the day. There is a National/Alamo car rental office near the MK Main Gate Car Care Center that offers pick up and drop off.

AAA Car Care Center

Or you can use your DME return to MCO and pick up a rental car there.
