Boating at the Beach Club

[sbkline]

We're looking at the Beach Club for next year and wondered if they do any kind of boat rentals there like they do at the Magic Kingdom area resorts?

Yes they do!

Here is the Marina

You can run the boats to the Studios and close to Epcot's International Gateway

Cool, thanks! When we stayed at the Wilderness Lodge last month, I took my son out on a pontoon while my wife relaxed on the beach, and I was hoping we could do that at the Beach Club, too. I just hope we get a warmer day for it than we did last month!

Just a personal preference, but I found boating in the Epcot resort area to not be nearly as much fun as the MK resort area. Of course if you are staying there, then the conveniece is nice but I found myself kind of just going in circles after a little while since there just isn't as much space or things to see.

Ya, I wondered about that, since the lake doesn't seem to be as big as Bay Lake/Seven Seas Lagoon. But I also haven't totally ruled out splitting the stay between the Beach Club and the Polynesian, in which case we could get back out on 7 Seas Lagoon.

Ya crescent lake is to small. I think they should have made it a bit bigger. Along with the Boardwalk, but it's still fun regardless.

Agreed it is small, but it is cool to be able to drive up to the Studios and see the Tower of Terror from the backside, and then head back over towards Epcot.

I think it's worth doing at least once.

Also, the throttles on the water mice are limited more than they are on the Bay Lake/Seven Seas Lagoon boats, as the waterways are smaller.

And you don't have to be staying at a Bay Lake/SSL resort to rent a boat there.
