Target or Walmart near port?

[vtwep]

Looking to grab a few items on our way from the airport to our night-before-the-cruise hotel. Any suggestions a Target or Walmart in the area? Any we should avoid?

Which port?

There's a WalMart Supercenter off SR-528 (Exit 45A). Also a Publix, CVS, Aldi's and a few other stores. Can't vouch for the area though.

There's also a Walmart Supercenter off SR-520 in Merritt Island--it's not as new as the one off 520, but not in a bad area. There's also a Target, TJ Maxx, Publix, Aldi, etc in Merritt Island (exit 49S off SR 528). All are in areas that you'd want to avoid. Shouldn't have trouble locating them with a Google search.

Thanks! And sorry - Port Canaveral. This is our first cruise...so that's the only one on my radar.

We always stop at the Publix off 528 and N Courtenay Parkway (not sure of actual exit number). It's only maybe 1/2 a mile to a mile of 528. It is nice, clean and has a good wine selection which is really my only prerequisite...

I always wondered where a Wal-Mart was around there. Thanks for the heads up!

Can you clarify - "all are in areas that you'd want to avoid".

There is a Publix and CVS right down the street from the port.

A thousand pardons. I meant to type all are NOT in areas you'd want to avoid. Frankly, I would say there aren't any areas around the port (Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, Merritt Island) that you'd want to avoid.
