Florida with kids 3 - Typhoon Lagoon (A review)

Well they say that you should leave the best 'til last and so I have. Typhoon Lagoon, the tamer of the two of Disney's Water Parks, was by far and away my favourite park that we visited during our two week stay in Florida.

For the atmosphere alone I'd recommend anyone to go. From the moment you turn off road to drive down to the car park you are transported into the laid back beach vibe.

After getting ourselves a beach side base we headed straight for the lazy river - perfect for getting acclimatised without too much effort.

Typhoon Lagoon is great for all but just perfect if you have little kids. There is a dedicated area for the smallies with special rides just for them - no big guys allowed! Something the four year old greatly appreciated.

Safety is paramount at all times and life vests are provided free of charge to anyone needing one.

The big kids were kept amused in the wavepool - the BOOM! of the next big wave never ceasing to raise a scream.

We managed to test out some of the bigger rides too - plenty to choose from and some good family ones too.

Overall it was a fabulous day out and I could have gone back there the very next morning - always a good sign in my books.

So the verdict from the family - a great big thumbs up from all of us. Top marks Disney!
