Typhoon-Lagoon

Catch 6-foot waves in the Surf Pool and snorkel Shark Reef—with real sharks!

According to Disney legend, Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park was created in the wake of the storm-of-storms.

During the meteorological disturbance, surfboards were hurled into palm trees and boats were tossed through thatched roofs of beach houses… and onto mountains...this resort is beautiful...try and find time for a visit!

Typhoon Lagoon Shrimp boat

The storm's force propelled the boat onto the peak of the volcanic mountain, Mount Mayday.

To this day Miss Tilly, the shrimp boat, still sits—impaled and precariously perched. Every half hour, the boat's whistle blows and the volcano attempts to dislodge its burden by bursting, causing an enormous geyser of water to shoot skyward...not to be missed!

After the storm swept out to sea, the Disney legend concludes, Mount Mayday became the source for many waterslides.

Surrounding the mountain, a 56-acre topsy-turvy tropical paradise was formed—full of waterways, rivers, rapids and slides: A sun-drenched Water Park.
