When do boats start in the morning?

We are staying at PBH and will definitely be taking advantage of early entry to WWOHP. If the parks open at 9 and WWOHP opens at 8, when do the boats start? Should we get to the boat launch early - is there usually a long line?

I'm now 100% sure, but I believe 1 hour before park opens. Someone else might know.

Prior to parry hotter days, the boat would leave the docks at 7:45 a.m.

with the early entry, i'm not positive.

i stayed at rph last october but didn't get up at the crack of dawn for the early entry.

hhn wiped me out for any early rising......

to the pp, call the hotel direct and ask for current info on the water taxi schedule.

I'm not 100% sure either, but I THINK it was either 7.30 or 7.45am. It was possible to get the boats and arrive theoretically in time for early opening at 8am, but I was not happy with that arrangement so I walked from RPR to IOA every morning.

I liked to be at the gates queing by 7.40 at the LATEST, so I worked out pretty quickly that the boats were not going to be to my advantage. Maybe the first boat sailed past me half way around the waterway, but I was still going to be in line before any of those noobs.

IMO, there's nothing quite like taking an early morning walk along waterways to your favourite theme park in the already-sweltering Floridian summer heat.

BTW, I'm British, that's why I think EVERYTHING is hot.

When we were there a few weeks ago. Early Opening started at 7 am. The first boats were at 6:45.

And each of the 3 mornings we were there, they were already letting people in at 6:40. Could have been because of the Spring break crowds.

Have Fun!
