Typhoon Lagoon

This 56-acre water park would most likely be the choice of FISH if they could choose an amusement park, as Typhoon Lagoon features some of the wettest and wildest attractions at Walt Disney World. Before Blizzard Beach opened, Typhoon Lagoon was the largest water park on property. It is still immensely popular, with its twisting tides, roaring rapids, wonderful waterways and relaxing rivers. Typhoon Lagoon also features a special area where guests can snorkel among live sharks and other tropical fish. Excluding the snorkeling area, all water is heated to a toasty 75-80 degrees year-round.

Blizzard Beach

As legend has it, Blizzard Beach was created by a freak winter storm that dropped snow over the western side of the Walt Disney World® Resort. Temperatures soared, however, and as water began to cascade down Mt. Gushmore, the first ski resort/water adventure park was born!

Bobsledding down the snowy slopes of Mt. Gushmore or plunging straight down Summit Plummet at 60 mph will give you the spine-chilling thrills of a northern ski resort. But the Blizzard Beach water adventure park is pure tropical fun in the sun.
