Boat between Epcot and HS

[disneykid99]

I remember there is a boat or walkway between Epcot and HS - right? I cannot recall if it is the same boat that takes you from Epcot to the Boardwalk. Can anyone refresh my memory? If there is a boat or walk way about how long is the ride or walk? Thank you for the help

Yes, there is a boat that goes between the parks. It stops all the Epcot resorts on the way (3 stops). There is a walkway between HS and BW and of course a short walk on to EP. I'm not sure of the time difference between the two, but I'm sure someone can answer that for you.

I never timed either but the walk is definitely quicker. 3 times last year I walked while my GF & niece took the boat and I always made it to Epcot of DHS way before them. That's also with me constantly stopping to take pictures too.

I made a map of the route some time ago. Per gmaps-pedometer, the route is 1.22 miles, from the front of DHS to the International Gateway at Epcot. You can shorten it a little, by cutting through the Boardwalk.

When we have taken it, it has taken about 15-20 minutes, pushing strollers. Which was still faster than the boat.

The boat makes its rounds from MGM/Swan and Dolphin/Boardwalk/Y & B Club

I timed the boat ride at 27 minutes.

The boat takes about 12 minutes from Epcot to Yacht & Beach Clubs, stopping at Boardwalk. If a boat has just left Epcot, you may be able to catch up with it by walking to the Yacht & Beach dock.
