Walk From Beach Club To Epcot-how Long?

[MBELSANTI]

Does anyone know how long it takes to walk it and the distance?

 

[suzieqmomof4]

Five minutes. Ten if you dawdle. It's really close.

 

[thesupersmartguy]

5-7 minutes.

It took us less than 10 mins but then my 3 yr old son was walking not in his stroller...I'm sure if he was in his stroller it would have taken us 5 mins but he wanted to walk with dad.

 

[MBELSANTI]

Wow, thanks! I did not realize it was THAT close!

Not sure if this is in the right place, but here it goes...
We have dinner ressies at BC at 8:55, we are going to Epcot at noonish, can I park at BC with my ressies even though it is far off, and walk to epcot, and back for my dinner?
Did that even make sense?

I would say it is about 5 minutes. We also found out that if you take the path and walk under the bridge (along the water) it is easier than going over the bridge.

Five minutes max, unless you take your time and take pictures. We took pictures along the way one day and it still only took 10 minutes. It is a great and enjoyable walk. Very pretty.

Add another 5 minutes if you are on end furthest away from Epcot. Still a very short walk.

And don't bother even considering taking the boat. To do that, you'd have to walk nearly as far to the dock at the Yacht Club, wait for the boat, then ride it first to Boardwalk and then from there over to the International Gateway entrance to Epcot

Short answer, no you cannot!!

There will be a sign at the BC entrance that says you cannot park there and go to the theme parks.

Parking at resorts is not provided for park access. You are allowed to park there while enjoying the resort amenities.
It's going to be an issue if your ADRis at 8:55. By the time you finish eating, Epcot will be closed. I believe BC has valet parking, so that's what I would do. You are allowed to pay for valet parking and then go to a park.

The walk is about 5 mins to the International Gateway.

About 5 minutes. The Beach Club is super-close to Epcot.

Your question made sense, but you are not supposed to do that. When you are visiting a resort for a meal, you are supposed to get a 3 hour parking pass and you are not supposed to be parking at the resort for the purpose of visiting a nearby park. At some resorts (Poly and Contemp come to mind, not sure about BC), the short term parking passes are enforced and people who overstay their welcome are towed.

I'm not sure why you would want to spend all day in a park and then go to dinner in the same clothes you have been in all day, but if you do, one way to do what you want is to valet park at the BC (it costs $10 plus tip); if you valet, you can leave your car at the BC for as long as you want.

This is good to know thanks! I was planning on taking boat to save some steps as an old ankle injury is flaring up and my ankle blows up like a balloon lately, but now that you said that, it isn't worth it as I am going to be in the Villas which looks to be even closer.

My husband gas bad ankles as well. He found it easier to walk the path under the bridge than go over it.

DH loved to tell friends that we could walk from our Villa at the BCV and have a beer in hand in the UK in 10 minutes It is a very pleasant, short walk.
Enjoy your trip.
