Re: Resorts with Beach
I know for sure that they didn't allow swimming in the Seven Seas Lagoon when we were there last August at the Grand Floridian and we also couldn't swim at the Beach Club either. To the best of my knowledge, none of the beaches at the resorts allow swimming anymore.

Re: Resorts with Beach
Welcome Mr. Math.
I wouldn't swim off any Florida beach. They have critters that eat people. Seriously? I know they do not encourage beach swimming. They, in fact discourage it.

Nope. Don't think so.

Re: Resorts with Beach
You're not allowed to swim in any of the lagoons/lakes. Trust me, you wouldn't want to anyways.

Re: Resorts with Beach
I know they let the kids splash around at the edge of the water at the Wilderness Lodge, and play in the sand.
But no swimming in the lakes/beaches anywhere in WDW.

Re: Resorts with Beach
WDW is in Florida. Florida has Gators. Gators eat people.
I'll stick to the pool.

Re: Resorts with Beach
I was once told by a WDW Boat Capatain that the Lakes at the WDW Resort contained a "Flesh Eating Bacteria" and it was unadvisable to swim in them for extended period of time......which I suppose why waterskiing and tubing is allowed, but swimming..is not.
My advice..saty far away from the flesh eating bacteria.

Re: Resorts with Beach
Welcome to DC!! Hope that you're not disappointed about not swimming in the lakes, but getting eaten by alligators put such a damper on your vacation.
