Relax by the water, zip down the waterslides, float along a lazy river–there is so much to do. Let’s check out the opening day fun at Typhoon Lagoon!
Disney Waterparks
Disney guests have two options when it comes to water parks, Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon, but they are not operational at the same time.
Typhoon Lagoon
The two water parks take turns closing while one stays open during specific months.
Typhoon Lagoon closed its doors in October for its annual refurbishment while Blizzard Beach remained open.

Now, they have switched, just in time for Spring Break.

Castaway Creek
We didn’t notice too many major changes, just an over all refresh of the park.

Here is a great photo of Castaway Creek as guests grabbed their tubes and floated along the 2,000-foot-long route!
Relaxing day
And guests of all ages checked out the fun at Ketchakiddee Creek. Specially made for kids under 4 feet tall, little ones can enjoy shallow pools, mini waterslides, and a special cave.

Typhoon Lagoon has so many great options that range from calm and gentle to fast and thrilling.

You can catch a wave in the giant surf pool or simply relax on the beach’s soft sand.
Fun in the sun
And there are still plenty of great places to unwind under shady palms or large beach umbrellas.
Beach Umbrellas
Here is a great look at the Beachcomber Shacks.

These private cabanas can accommodate up to 10 guests and offer great amenities, such as towels, cold water, souvenir mugs, and more.

Here is where we did notice some updates!
New bridge update
There is new rope on the bridge leading up to the iconic centerpiece, Miss Tilly.

Here is another great look! The bridge looks brighter and refreshed– and is still a lot of fun to walk through!

As we wandered through the water park we noticed not all of the dining locations were open yet.
Lowtide Lou’s
But you can still purchase your souvenir mug to save on refills and stay hydrated throughout the day.
Souvenir Mug
The price is $12.99 for one day of fountain drink refills and $8.50 for the one-day mug reactivation option.
Refill Stations
And, of course, your favorite snack shacks are open, and you can indulge in creamy treats and DOLE whip.

We were having so much fun we had to stop by some of our other favorite food and beverage locations.
We were excited to find some new eats!
Fun at Typhoon Lagoon
Leaning Palms is always a great option for a quick bite. And their menu has some classic faves mixed in with new offerings.

One of the menu favorites is a rice bowl, which you can now get with shrimp, chicken, pork, or tofu.
Other new offerings include Elote Nachos, Cuban flatbread, and a pulled pork sandwich.
