Walt Disney World offers a huge variety of active and spectator sports of all kinds. Most people just never notice, because they are too busy waiting in line at Dumbo. Most resorts offer weight and cardio equipment. Of course all have pools and many have sandy beaches on lakes. Bikes are available for rental at the Marketplace, as well as some resorts. Most of the resorts on the water rent boats and other water craft, from paddle boats, canoes and row boats to motor boats. The Yacht and Beach Club offers sailing lessons, and sail boat rentals.

Guided fishing expeditions are available from several resorts, including the Fort Wilderness Lodge. The guides not only help you catch fish, they will take you off the beaten path to see some of the natural wonders of central Florida, including alligators and egrets.
