Get ready to trade in the sand for snow as Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park officially reopens its frosty gates today, November 4, 2024! With Typhoon Lagoon’s last day of operation for the season ending yesterday, guests can now immerse themselves in the wintry magic of Blizzard Beach just in time for cooler months in Florida.
Unlike the tropical oasis of Typhoon Lagoon, Blizzard Beach offers a whimsical, ski-resort-inspired theme that brings a true winter wonderland to Central Florida. From snowy mountain caps to ski lift rides, snowmen photo ops, and plenty of frosty decor, this water park is decked out with all the charm of a snowy ski lodge. The park’s unique theme is inspired by the legend of a snowstorm that once swept through Florida, leaving behind ski slopes that were quickly transformed into thrilling water slides as the snow melted!
Here’s what makes Blizzard Beach the perfect winter retreat:
Mount Gushmore: Take the iconic ski lift to the top of Mount Gushmore for an aerial view of the park before you plunge down thrilling slides like Summit Plummet, one of the world’s tallest and fastest free-fall slides.
Lazy Creek and Snowy Decor: Drift along Cross Country Creek and take in the whimsical snowy details around the park, from icicles to frosty trees and friendly snowmen.
Family Fun: With attractions for all ages, including the family-friendly Toboggan Racers and Tike’s Peak for little ones, Blizzard Beach is ideal for a day of winter-themed water fun.
While there’s no confirmed closing date for Blizzard Beach yet, it’s likely to close again in May 2025, just as summer temperatures rise and Typhoon Lagoon is set to reopen for the summer season.
Blizzard Beach’s reopening offers the perfect chance to experience a unique “Florida winter,” so grab your swimsuit (and maybe a scarf) and get ready to dive into the frosty fun!
