Hi,
I'm going to Florida for the first time in five days.[msnsmile2]
We are only planning on visiting one Disney Water Park while we are there. Which one would you recommend and why?
Thanks,
Claire

There are loads of differing opinions of the water parks, some prefer blizzard beach others prefer typhon lagoon.
If you have the waterpark option on your ticket then you can visit both anyway.
I personaly prefer blizzard beach as it is quieter for me, I do not like the hooter from the shipwreck and the machine that makes the waves etc and you get tons of kids screaming then that happens, but I can find a somewhat quiet corner if I do go.
Typhon lagoon does have more of the thrill rides than blizzard beach, so we tend to visit both anyway.
Also if you buy the soda cup for $12 at either of the parks you can use it again in the next park and only pay $6 for the sticker on the cup. So free refills all day as well.

Typhoon Lagoon definitely for us!
The rides at blizzard beach are much better in our opinion and as far as I know it gets filled quicker than TL.
Overall BB is a much better experience.

Haven't been for a while, but I seem to think it is Blizzard beach that has the best family raft ride
Pros for both parks ... think I slightly prefer Blizzard Beach, if only because the changing rooms are brighter. I love the family raft ridee too....great family fun.
Love them both to bits but if i had to choose would plmp for typhoon Lagoon myself
I would recommend both of them. [clap]
They are both different in the own ways.

Blizzard Beach is fab you'll love it, makesure you get there early though as the queues can be long, park opens at 10:00am however gates open around 9:45am, Rides are Great checkout Summit Plummit, there's also lots of fun things for the kids we are going Dec so looking forward to going back to BL and Aquatica, TL is fab to Surf Pool great, and shark reef, to be honest any Disney Water Park will be just great....Have fun and enjoy[msnwink]

My family would go for TL if they had to choose, mainly for the wave machine.

Hi..
You can visit two water park , which are attractive and beautiful to visit.These are Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon. But Typhoon Lagoon is better.
For more information, You can visit ***
Hi Claire
Both of the Disney waterparks are good but if I had to choose it would be BB basically because I love Summit Plummet - it is the best water ride ever .... atomic wedgies all round !!
If you get a chance, try Aquatica as an alternative, we really enjoyed it there when we went in October and went a number of times over the 2 week period. Whichever waterpark you go to you will enjoy yourself because it is a break from the hustle and bustle of the big theme parks.
Its all a matter of choice - I like Typhoon Lagoon the best, but the family really enjoyed Aquatica and I found the lazy river there brilliant.
Whichever one you choose I am sure you will have a great time! [msnwink]

In 1996 when my son was just nine he went walkabout (he always has had a great faith in me finding him if I wanted him) for a about 2 hours, I was really panicking (he returned when he was hungry[msntongue] After that I gave him the instruction he had to report back whenever he heard the hooter - worked a treat.
I think that both are great, with a slight preference for TL. The one thing to be extra cautious of in BB is that the white surfaces really reflect the heat, so make doubly sure you are regularly applying the sunscreen.
Loved both on last visit( 10 yrs ago) [msnsad], so looking forward to taking the kids this time,:D dont think it matters which one you choose you will have a fab time at either

If I had to pick one, I think Typhoon Lagoon would be my choice. I think Blizzard Beach was more a no.1 for our daughter when she was younger..now she is happy to do either!! [8D] Just thinking about the Disney water parks..makes me tingle, they are so lovely!

I love Blizzard Beach - it's a bit quieter than Typhoon Lagoon, and the rides and slides are first class!
Some of our best days at Disney have been at the water parks...they're so great! :D
typhon lagoon We love lazy river and the rest all run around the slides. And the wave pool is great.
But my sister thinks Blizzard Beach has more for the kids.
