Typhoon Lagoon is NOW OPEN at Disney World, and Blizzard Beach is Next!
Grab your sunscreen and get ready for some fun aquatic adventures! Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park has officially swung open its gates today, Thursday, May 1st, welcoming guests to a tropical paradise brimming with fun for the whole family. This must-do destination at Walt Disney World Resort promises a wave of excitement for everyone.

Thrill-seekers, prepare for an adrenaline rush! Typhoon Lagoon boasts exhilarating water attractions like the twisting and turning Crush ‘n’ Gusher water coaster, the family raft adventure Miss Adventure Falls, and the iconic, high-speed Humunga Kowabunga speed slides. For those seeking a more relaxed pace, the gentle surf pool offers a refreshing escape, while the scenic Castaway Creek lazy river invites you to drift along and soak in the tropical vibes. Little ones will have a blast at Ketchakiddee Creek, a dedicated area featuring shallow pools and pint-sized waterslides perfect for tiny tots.

But the fun doesn’t stop at the water’s edge! Keep an eye out for the mischievous Stitch, who often roams the park, ready for a fun photo opportunity. Cool down with a variety of delicious fruity and tropical drinks available throughout the park, and indulge in some truly fantastic water park cuisine. My personal recommendations? The savory barbecue chicken flatbread, the classic chocolate chip ice cream sandwiches, and the ultimate shareable treat, the Waterparks Sand Pail Sundae.

Double the Fun: Blizzard Beach Reopens Later This Month!
The only thing better than one incredible Disney water park? Two! Get ready for double the splash-tastic fun because Disney’s Blizzard Beach is set to reopen on May 21st, following a brief closure that began on May 1st. This marks the first time since 2019 that guests can experience the thrills and chills of both Disney water parks during their Walt Disney World vacation.

Blizzard Beach offers a unique wintery theme, inviting guests to enjoy a delightful mix of frosty fun amidst wonderfully warm waters. Adventure awaits on exhilarating slides like the towering Summit Plummet and the racing Downhill Double Dipper, while a leisurely float down Cross Country Creek provides a relaxing escape. The little ones will adore the ‘Frozen’-themed play areas of Tike’s Peak and can splash and play in the comfortably heated waters of Melt-Away Bay wave pool.

To make your water park adventures even more magical, Disney is offering a special deal: Guests staying at a Walt Disney World hotel in 2025 receive free admission to either water park on their day of arrival!
These incredible deals and experiences are just a taste of the special offers, new shows, and limited-time activities and entertainment heading to Walt Disney World this summer as part of the Cool Kid Summer celebration.
