Drop-Off & Parking
Drop-Off
Pull up to the curbside drop-off in front of the terminal on North Cruise Blvd. Porters are available curbside — tip $2-3 per bag. Terminal C hosts ships from several different lines, so watch for your ship's name on the signage rather than a cruise-line logo.
Parking
Park in Multi-Level Garage C at 1648 N Cruise Blvd — $10/day short-term (no overnight) or $25/day for the length of your cruise. It's directly across from the terminal.
Check-In Tips
- Terminal C is PortMiami's flexible multi-line terminal — assignments can shift, so re-confirm your terminal with your cruise line the day before sailing
- Follow your cruise line's check-in window rather than showing up at opening — staggered arrival keeps the lobby moving on busy overflow days
- Have your passport and booking confirmation ready at the check-in counters
Last-Minute Needs
No shops of note inside the terminal. Stop at a CVS or Walgreens on Biscayne Blvd on your way in — about 5 minutes before reaching the port.
