Hey, Kerry!
Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Life on Disney’s BoardWalk is thriving and fantastic.
You are correct. There is no direct bus to
Disney's BoardWalk Area but you may take a bus from any theme park or Disney Springs to Disney's BoardWalk Inn which is the closest of the five Resort hotels in the BoardWalk Area.
Disney Dad Tip: Trattoria al Forno and the
Flying Fish Cafe have top shelf food and service. From the sweet treats at the
BoardWalk Bakery with it's yummy Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar to Seashore Sweets’ ice cream, sugar never tasted so good. Stroll and revel in the beautiful walk both day and night around Crescent Lake. During the day, you may rent Surrey Bikes and stroll around or cruise over to the Bayside Marina and take a pontoon boat or Sea Raycer out on the water. We enjoy watching the magicians and other Atlantic City carney-style acts like sword swallowers, called the Boardwalk Buskers, performing along the wooden planks during the early evening. If you like to dance and listen to dueling pianos then stroll around to the Atlantic Dance Hall or Jellyrolls for some late night music and fun.
Kerry, I hope this helps and that you enjoy making many Magical Memories.
