Seek Up Adventures

When most people think of Disney World, they imagine thrilling rides, beloved characters, and magical parades. At least we did, until we stumbled upon the Boardwalk! Tucked away near Epcot lies a hidden gem: Disney’s BoardWalk. This charming, turn-of-the-century-inspired promenade offers a delightful blend of dining, entertainment, and recreation activities. Whether you’re looking for a relaxing escape from the theme parks or a vibrant evening adventure, the BoardWalk has something for everyone.

Disney’s BoardWalk channels the nostalgia of classic coastal towns like Atlantic City and Coney Island. The buildings, string lights, and waterfront views transport you to an era of seaside charm. It’s the perfect spot to stroll, take in the sights, and soak up the atmosphere while winding down for the day.

The BoardWalk is home to some of Disney’s most beloved dining experiences. We ate dinner at Trattoria al Forno, a cozy Italian restaurant that offered hearty pastas and wood-fired pizzas. It was delicious and we enjoyed the evening while dining together.

As the sun set, the BoardWalk came alive with entertainment. Street performers—magicians, jugglers, and musicians—created a festive atmosphere perfect for families.

Tips for Visiting:

1. Visit in the Evening: The BoardWalk truly shines after dark with twinkling lights, cool breezes, and lively entertainment.

2. Make Dinner Reservations: Popular restaurants like Flying Fish and Trattoria al Forno can fill up quickly, so plan ahead.

3. Park Access: If you’re visiting Epcot or Hollywood Studios, the BoardWalk is just a short walk or boat ride away—perfect for a mid-day break or post-park dinner.

4. No Admission Required: You don’t need a park ticket to explore the BoardWalk, making it a great option for a rest day!

So next time you’re at Disney World, take a stroll down the BoardWalk—you just might discover your new favorite spot, we sure did!
