FROM HS to Beaches & Cream

[kitkat4622]

how long would it take? would you walk or take the boat?

We've done both, but after spending a day walking around the park the Friendship boars are a nice break on the feet.

If you walk at a good pace all the way, it would take you 25 minutes.

Boat ride with stops probably around 15.

When we stayed at the BC, we always walked, and always beat the boat.

It's about 1 mile from the gate at HS. I would walk unless a boat is setting there at the dock.

Nine times out of ten, I'd walk.

Um No. Its about 15 minutes at a decent pace. Even with the boat sitting at the doc, by the time it makes stops you'd likely beat it walking. We beat the boat both times when we did it and that was me pushing my son in a stroller.

Sorry, but it is not just a 15 minute walk to Beach Club from DHS.
(Unless your party is used to jogging a 15 minute mile.)

The boat only makes one stop after leaving DHS (at Swolphin dock) before arriving at Yacht/Beach dock.

I would never walk. My feet do enough work in the parks. The boat ride is scenic and out of the glaring sun.

I've done both as well. The walk is a bit more than a mile, and takes most people 20-25 minutes. Could be more if you have a stroller, slower walkers, etc. I'd probably take the boat depending on time of day and line for the boat. You can sometimes have a 10-15 minute wait for the boat to arrive, then it has to load and go. And there is the chance that the boat line will be so long you'll have to wait for a 2d boat, but that doesn't usually happen. If I won't have to wait for a 2d boat and it was hot/sunny, I'd take the boat.

nevermind

When we stayed at the BC we always took the boat. We walked over 10 miles a day in the parks. I wasn't walking an extra mile in the August heat if I didn't have to.

We ate at Beaches and Cream on Saturday 7/8 then walked over to HS for the Star Wars fireworks. I logged it with MapMyRun

We've danced it (tango) in 14.3 minutes.

Note: they don't allow dancing on the boat.

 

[bigbabyblues]

We always walk.

I don't think I could jog that slow if I tried, that a brisk walking pace.

It really depends on how you feel when you are ready to go to B&C. When staying at BWI, we typically walk, but, for some reason, BC/YC feels so much farther to me. If you decide to walk, I think it's slightly shorter to walk past Swan/Dolphin to get to YC/BC (as opposed to walking past BWI). I would probably take the boat OR if you don't want to wait or walk, get an uber (they pick up by the DHS taxi stand).

 

[Cinderella94]

We walk at a pretty good pace, but not at all a jog, and have beaten the boat.

I walked and pushed a stroller along with smoking my electric cigarette and we beat the boat and I timed it, 15 minutes. That was walking at a reasonable pace and not jogging or anything.
