Hey there, hi there, Jessica! Welcome to planDisney! I'm so glad that you've stopped by with such a great vacation planning question. Chatting Disney is my favorite!
Eek! In just days, you'll be arriving at The Most Magical Place on Earth, ready to have a splashing good time at
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park. How exciting! My family and I had the BEST time at Typhoon Lagoon last month. It was the perfect combination of an oh-so-fun Disney day and a relaxing pool day and the perfect way to stay cool while still having a blast in the Florida sunshine. I'm so excited for you to have a soaking good time at Disney's Typhoon Lagoon and am happy to chat with you about keeping you comfortable all day long so that you can maximize the magic and have the BEST. DAY. EVER!
My one regret about our awesome day at Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park was not wearing shoes. I walked around barefoot all day, and my feet did begin to feel a little tender by the end of the day. I'm happy to hear that you are already planning to wear shoes! While I did see other Guests wearing Crocs and Keen sandals, the next time I go, I will wear water shoes and that is what I'd recommend to you. I feel as if the Crocs and even Keen sandals may be a little bulky and cumbersome when going down some of the body slides and especially when swimming in the giant swells of the Typhoon Lagoon Surf Pool. Surf's up, Jessica!
Speaking of comfort, to maximize the fun, relaxation and shade during your day at Typhoon Lagoon, I recommend reserving either a
Beachcomber Shack or one of the
Typhoon Lagoon Umbrellas. My family and I reserved a Beachcomber Shack in advance, and it was the perfect place to take a break in the shade, have lunch and just relax in between splashing. To check availability and reserve a premium space, just call (407) WDW-PLAY or (407) 939-7529. Happy lounging!
One more Typhoon tip! I
must recommend the Habanero Lime Galley Shack Swirl from the Snack Shack! It's made with mango and lime DOLE Whip, silver tequila, habanero-lime flavoring, Sprite, and a chili-lime rim. YUM! See?! BEST. DAY. EVER!
I hope this was helpful, Jessica, and I hope you have the coolest time at Typhoon Lagoon! Please stop by any time with any planning questions you may have along the way. You've got a friend in me!
See ya real soon,
Mandy
