Hi Mary,
Welcome to planDisney! Thanks for asking a question about pontoon boat rentals at
Walt Disney World Resort - you've got me dreaming of floating across Seven Seas Lagoon with Cinderella Castle off in the distance. Renting a boat at Disney World lets you set sail and feel like you’re in a whole new world!
Pontoon boat rentals are a fun and relaxing way to explore various waterways at Disney World, I'm so glad you're considering renting! To pilot a boat, the driver must be over 18 and have a valid driver's license. Pontoon boats can accommodate up to 10 Guests and there is plenty of space to stretch out. I highly recommend visiting your resort's Quick Service dining location and grabbing some food to go - a pontoon picnic on the water is such a treat!
I chatted with a Cast Member to confirm the rental location hours at the
Grand Floridian marina and while May's hours haven't been posted yet, they don't typically vary much from the current times of 11 AM - 5 PM. Keep in mind that pontoon rentals are first come, first served so during busier times, there may be a bit of a wait.
I hope this information helps with your vacation planning, Mary! Wishing you a magical springtime stay at Walt Disney World Resort. Feel free to stop by
planDisney with any other questions you may have - we're always happy to help.
See ya real soon,
Candace
