Boardwalk Resort - Photo Tour

Luna Park is the resort's themed pool area and the closest thing to the real atmosphere of old Coney Island that you'll find here.  The old wooden roller coaster is called the "keister coaster."  It's actually a water slide, and not a real coaster at all.  The pool area has other Coney Island touches, too, like the water squirting elephants over in the kiddie pool area.

Another example is Leaping Horse Libations, the pool bar.  It's dressed up as a carousel

Here's a picture I already showed from down on the boardwalk, but since this page is supposed to cover the resort's activities, I'll repeat my mention of the very popular surrey bicycles that you can rent at the boardwalk.  Two, four, and six passenger models can be rented by the hour.

There's one other activity worth mentioning. You can go on guided fishing trips right from the resort. Pontoon boats, with all the necessary equipment and a guide, go out for those folks that enjoy that sort of thing.

I'll make one last parting comment. In that picture above, that building just above the bass boat is the resort's Community Hall. DVC members can go over there to get videos to borrow, games to play, and special activities that are scheduled to enjoy. Each DVC resort has much the same thing, and the Boardwalk is no exception.
