Non-stop to Florida's Space Coast. Under £300.
TUI is flying non-stop to Melbourne, Florida from London, Manchester and Newcastle this June. From £293 return. Melbourne sits on the Space Coast: Atlantic beaches, warm water, and Kennedy Space Center 45 minutes up the road. One of the most underrated corners of Florida, and right now it costs less than most European summer breaks.

💰 How Far Does Your Money Go?
A pint in central London costs £7. A cold beer at a waterfront bar in Melbourne, Florida runs around $5, about £4. A proper seafood dinner on the Space Coast, grouper, shrimp, fresh oysters, comes in at $20 to $25. The same spend in Manchester or London gets you a starter and a glass of house wine. Florida is consistently cheaper than people expect it to be.
☀️ The Weather
June in the UK is unpredictable. Manchester averages 17°C. Newcastle sits at roughly the same. Melbourne, Florida runs 30 to 32°C through June, with Atlantic breezes, long sunny mornings, and afternoon storms that clear fast. Pack factor 50 and a thin rain jacket. That is all you need.
🏨 Where to Stay
Melbourne has solid options, from a rooftop downtown boutique to an oceanfront resort on the Atlantic.
Hotel Melby Downtown Melbourne, Tapestry Collection by Hilton — 9.2/10 · From £75/night Art deco interiors, rooftop bar with water views, right in historic downtown. The best all-round pick in Melbourne.
Crowne Plaza Melbourne-Oceanfront by IHG — 8.1/10 · From £93/night Directly on the Atlantic. Outdoor pool, on-site restaurant, complimentary airport shuttle. Wake up to ocean views.
Windemere Inn by the Sea — 9.3/10 · From £130/night A boutique B&B right on the Atlantic in Melbourne Beach. Small, personal, and consistently one of the best-reviewed stays on the Space Coast.
🎯 What to Do
The Space Coast is not just beaches.
Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex — Walk beneath Space Shuttle Atlantis, stand next to the Saturn V rocket, and watch IMAX space films. 45 minutes north of Melbourne. Spend a full day. Entry runs around $75 (£60) for adults. 👉 Check on TripAdvisor
Indian River Lagoon Dolphin and Manatee Tour — One of North America's most biodiverse waterways. Guided boat tours spot dolphins, manatees and sea turtles year-round. About 90 minutes and genuinely worth it. 👉 Check on TripAdvisor

Frigate's Waterfront Bar and Grill — Fresh seafood, cold drinks, and a deck over the Eau Gallie River. Local, unhurried, and exactly the kind of place you want on your first evening in Florida. 👉 Check on TripAdvisor
🗺️ Where to Go From Here
Melbourne is a base, not just a destination. The Space Coast and central Florida open up from here.
Cocoa Beach — 20 minutes north. Classic Florida beach town: surf shops, uncrowded sands in June and the famous Ron Jon Surf Shop. Good swimming, easy day trip.
Kennedy Space Center and Titusville — 45 minutes north. Combine it with a Cocoa Beach afternoon for a full day on the Space Coast.
Orlando — 1 hour west. Disney World, Universal Studios, EPCOT. Possible as a day trip, but an overnight gives you more room to breathe.
St. Augustine — 2 hours north. America's oldest city: a Spanish colonial fort, cobblestone streets and good food. A very different side of Florida and worth the drive.
Miami — 3 hours south by car, or a short domestic hop. Wynwood, South Beach, Little Havana. If you have extra days, it is worth it. Search flights
