One thing that's important to note for Volcano Bay is just how warm the water is. The park has heated water so it will never be icy cold like many other water parks. If you're worried about transportation there, that's where I would recommend the Aventura or Endless Summer, which essentially have their own access straight into the park. Went with my friends shortly after Volcano Bay opened and got a volcano view room, super cool at night.

it's a bit random, but the last couple times I stayed at cabana bay, they left the "private" gate open and never checked for proof of stay. Worth looking at if you are set on the walk in entrance method.

Been in Orlando for a week. Just finished with Disney and moving to the other parks. The cost of everything has doubled since our last trip here before the pandemic. And the magic is really gone from Disney. It’s all about how much more they can extract from you. Really Disney has one maybe 2 rides of note in each park. And if you want to ride them, get your wallet out.
@TheFrugalBritАй бұрын
Yeah the lightning lane stuff defiantely spoils the magic 😢
@astromanicdaveАй бұрын
@@TheFrugalBrit made me sick to have to fork out for so many rides. With 2 weeks in Orlando. You don’t have the time to spend 2/3 days waiting on lines for one park. We are going to miss out on Animal kingdom. Simply because I am not paying again for lightning lanes. The old fast pass was a great system. It’s pure greed.

Volcano Bay by a mile. Best ride/slide lineup. Great food options. Pro tip: For busy times of year, pre-purchase premium seating. It's much cheaper than the private cabana option and it comes with a private locker and waiter service.

I love Discovery Cover just for the contrast it provides - it always feels like a proper escape from the madness of the theme parks. On paper it looks like there isn't much to do, but on every occasion I've been I've found myself wishing it was open for longer before I had to leave!

My Sunday favorite; The Frugal Brit! I hope all is well with you and your family. I’ll definitely pass this on to my hubby and kids. I can’t swim and they’ll enjoy swimming with the dolphins. I’m normally waist deep with a life jacket on!😂 They love Volcano Bay and they’ve been there plenty of times. I enjoy alone time in the parks whilst they’re swimming. Wanna know a secret that’ll make you cringe? I served 14 years in the US Navy. Not required to swim; just float and tread water.
@lindseysharon259Ай бұрын
My grandpa was in the navy during the Second World War. We didn’t learn until he was in his 80s that he couldn’t swim! He assumed they would teach him when he joined but nope! Thankfully, while the ships he was on did take heavy damage, none actually sunk.

Haven’t been able to go to one of these since the late 1990’s (my wife’s progressive disability has made visiting water parks pretty much not an option since our last visit to Blizzard Beach in the late 1990’s)… we preferred Blizzard Beach to Typhoon Lagoon back then because, well, we grew up in the Northeast so we really Liked the theming

Did the dolphin swim a couple of times. But after the pandemic the interaction with the dolphin is barely 2 minutes. A 30 seconds "swim" and A minute and a half for posing for pictures. Those pictures are extremely expensive and in my opinion a rip off for families for whom this is a once in a lifetime trip. The environment is very nice but and we had a great time, but I will skip the dolphin-swim add-on next time.

I wasn't blown away by Discovery Cove. It was OK (although lunch bordered on terrible), and definitely not a bad deal at all when I did the multi-park bundle. It just wasn't as much of a "wow" experience as I though it would be. Aquatica was a complete disappointment and a rip off - I've never seen standard lockers that expensive. Too crowded, understaffed, and inefficient. I rode maybe 3 slides and left. It probably would have been better if I had gone during a weekday, as it wouldn't have been as crowded, but I did not have a good experience. I haven't tried Volcano Bay, but I've heard a lot of stories about how bad the TapuTapu system is and how hard it is to ride anything.
