As the clocks spring forward this weekend, marking the beginning of that glorious time of year known as Daylight Savings Time, the days at Walt Disney World Resort become ‘longer’. More time in the sun provides guests with more time to explore, play, and create unforgettable memories. Here are some fantastic ways to celebrate the beginning of Daylight Savings Time at the parks, ensuring you make the most of every extra minute of sunshine.

Start Your Day with a Sunrise Breakfast
Begin your Daylight Savings celebration with an early morning breakfast reservation at one of Disney’s resort restaurants with a view. Imagine sipping on a warm cup of coffee as the sun rises, casting a golden hue over the parks. Steakhouse 71 features amazing views served up with some great eats, including a special Easter Brunch if you are visiting the parks for the Easter holiday this year!
Make the Most of Extended Park Hours
With longer days comes the possibility of extended park hours. Take advantage of the additional daylight by hitting the parks early and staying late. This is the perfect time to experience your favorite rides with shorter wait times during the early morning and late evening hours. Be sure to check the official Walt Disney World app for updated park hours and plan your day accordingly!
Explore Outdoor Attractions and Shows
Take advantage of the extra daylight by exploring outdoor attractions and shows that you might typically miss during the shorter days of winter. For instance, the Kilimanjaro Safaris at Disney’s Animal Kingdom offers a unique experience in the late afternoon, as many animals are more active during this time. The extra sunlight also enhances the beauty of the park’s landscapes, perfect for photo opportunities.
Enjoy a Relaxing Resort Day by the Pool
Take advantage of the longer daylight hours by dedicating some time to relaxation at your Disney resort’s pool. With the sun shining brightly, it’s the perfect time to lounge by the water, enjoy a refreshing swim, or take part in poolside activities often offered by the resorts. Many Disney resorts boast themed pools with unique features, such as waterslides and lazy rivers, adding an extra layer of fun to your relaxation day. Sipping on a tropical drink or indulging in a poolside snack while soaking up the sun is a wonderful way to recharge and savor the extended daylight.
Enjoy a Leisurely Dinner with Sunset Views
Cap off your day with a dinner reservation at a restaurant offering spectacular sunset views. Toledo at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort offers breathtaking rooftop views along with delicious eats, making this a great spot to cap off an extended day at the parks!

Relax and Unwind
Finally, remember to take some time to relax and appreciate the beauty of Walt Disney World. With the extra daylight, there’s no need to rush from one attraction to the next. Instead, find a quiet spot, perhaps on the banks of the Rivers of America in Magic Kingdom or around the World Showcase Lagoon in EPCOT, and simply enjoy the moment.
