Rafts to Tom Sawyer's Island

, a pontoon barrel bridge, and a teeter-totter and spinning merry-go round fashioned from rocks.

At one time, there was also a fishing pier on the island called Catfish Cove, where fishing poles and live bait were provided for avid and amateur fisherman alike. Guests were invited to cast their lines and take home all the live fish they could catch. At the northern end of the Island once stood Fort Wilderness, an authentic recreation of the log forts used by the US Cavalry in the 1800s. From the lookout towers, young guests could enjoy firing popguns at make-believe targets. Fort Wilderness recently closed and was removed after years of decay made its natural wood construction unstable. This past year, the island has undergone a major renovation, incorporating an all-new pirate motif into its already existing elements. This is inspired by the enormous popularity of Disney’s new Pirates of the Caribbean film trilogy. There are similar attractions at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, and Tokyo Disneyland. The Disneyland Paris version is known as Adventure Isle and is located not in Frontierland, but Adventureland.
