Um...no. They don't let you wander around the island. But wouldn't that be nice?Originally posted by cloudboy
If you rent a boat, are you able to walk around the island, or do they prevent you from doing that?
There are boats out on Bay Lake (and Seven Seas Lagoon) patrolling the waters. I am sure they jump right on it when people get too close to the island.Originally posted by cloudboy
Actually, on a related note - it loks like there are bunch of roads and traisl around the property. How active are they about preventing people from hiking those?
Yeah, and it was infested back in the day when it was open, too. It is just so secluded. It was and is probably really hard to control the bug problem, and probably a big hastle, too.Originally posted by ChefMickeyGrits
I heard they can't do anything with Discovery Island right now because the island is in such bad shape - completely infested with bugs and needs a lot of help since they closed it up!
It was a bird sanctuary and people did work on the island...Originally posted by vhsshoulddie

There was talk a while ago of running a `Doom` style game on the island, in conjunction with a video game publisher - you know, run around shooting lasers at eachother. That didn`t get far...
My family and I used to go to DI every time we were at WDW and I would always be covered in mosquito bites. Since it closed, I have not had one mosquito bite while staying at WDW. Enough said.Originally posted by meanmice
I would think that having birds and lizards on the island would help to control that
