Surf's up, Kara!
The
Walt Disney World Water Parks are the best! You can often find my family splashing around at
Disney's Blizzard Beach or
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon on the weekends and in the summer. No trip to the water parks is complete without stopping for
mini donuts to snack on. They are so good, they have their own page on the Walt Disney World website!
I don't have an exact date for when Typhoon Lagoon will be opening, but I have seen online rumors that it could be as early as February. Take that with a grain of salt, because nothing is official until Disney announces it themselves.
I do see that the
water parks calendar says not available for both parks in April, but rest assured that there is always at least one of them open all year long as they switch off being closed for refurbishment. The hours of operation must not be loaded on the website just yet, so keep an eye out a little later for your desired dates to visit.
My kids love the
Surf Pool and being knocked over by the giant waves at Typhoon Lagoon, but my favorite at both parks is the lazy river. That is much more my speed.
Please stop back by and visit if you have any additional vacation planning questions.
Have a magical day!
