Typhoon Lagoon is a 61-acre themed water recreation attraction — inspired by the imagined legend of a typhoon, earthquake and ensuing tidal wave combining to create an inland sea with breaker waves (Typhoon Lagoon) and a towering watershed mountain (Mt. Mayday) atop which is a stranded shrimp boat (the Miss Tilly).

LOCATION: Disney Springs resort area near Disney’s Old Key West Resort and Disney Springs West Side on Buena Vista Drive — Walt Disney World Resort, Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

ACCESS: Vehicle parking lot is located off of Buena Vista Drive and is next to park entrance; buses operated from the Transportation and Ticket Center and most Walt Disney World resort hotels (Magic Kingdom resorts require transfer to Typhoon Lagoon buses at the Transportation and Ticket Center).

OPENED: June 1, 1989

Attractions:

Typhoon Lagoon: One of the world’s largest surfing lagoons (approximately 109,000 square feet, containing nearly three million gallons of water).

Mt. Mayday: The centerpiece watershed mountain, featuring . . .

Three speed slides — Humunga Kowabunga slides zip guests along 214-foot routes at up to 30 miles per hour.
A trio of curving body Storm Slides — Rudder Buster, Stern Burner and Jib Jammer wind in and out of caves, through waterfalls and between rock formations, sending guests along at up to 20 miles per hour over distances of about 300 feet each.
Three white-water rafting adventures — Keelhaul Falls, Mayday Falls and Gangplank Falls slide through caves and under waterfalls in inner tubes (Keelhaul Falls and Mayday Falls) or family-size craft (Gangplank Falls).

Crush ‘n’ Gusher: A water-coaster thrill attraction that takes riders aboard inflatable rafts on a twisting, turning, up-and-down adventure propelled by powerful water jets.

Ketchakiddee Creek: A separate water playground for children ages 2 to 5 (under four feet tall) and their parents. Features scaled-down versions of many of the water play activities the “big kids” can do, including a pint-sized white-water rafting adventure, an activity pool and S.S. Squirt, an interactive tug boat.

Castaway Creek: Guests hop onto inner tubes for a meandering water tour along a 2,100-foot circular channel that takes them through a misty rain forest, a hidden grotto and a sun-drenching, all with a spectacular view of Typhoon Lagoon and its many activities.
