Typhoon Lagoon vs. Blizzard BeachIt really depends if you're more interested in slides, or all kinds of water rides. Typhoon Lagoon is the original Disney Water park, and Blizzard Beach is the newest entry. Both are about the same size, beautifully landscaped, clean, and lots of fun.
Typhoon Lagoon has a surf pool with waves up to 6 ft. You can rent rafts to body surf, and it seems to be preferred by teens as a hang-out, who enjoy the Humonga Kowabonga ride, and the three white water raft rides. TL has 10 water slides as long as 400 ft. and as tall as 100 ft. The theme is "Aftermath of a Typhoon," with spinning rocks, faux bat caves and dinosaur bones. The concession area is a dilapidated tropical village. Shark Reef is a saltwater snorkeling pool where guests can swim among real tropical fish.
Blizzard Beach's theme is a Ski Resort that failed due to the warm Florida winters. Alpine buildings and bobsleds abound. The slides are better at Blizzard than at Typhoon, with 17 including one with a 120 ft. free-fall and one 1,200 ft. long. Slush Gusher, Teamboat Springs and Run-Off Rapids are the most popular slides. No surf pool here, but the wave pool is perfect for younger kids.
At Blizzard Beach there are different sections for all ages theres a section for little kids section for pre teens and teens. I think Blizzard Beach is good for people who want to hang out.

∙ 8y agoThis question is difficult to answer. Both parks have their own merits. Typhoon Lagoon is a little more thrill oriented. It has a water coaster, a huge wave pool, and you can even swim with sharks. Blizzard Beach has more for younger kids. It does have a few thrills though. One of the tallest water slides in the world is at Blizzard Beach. This is really something you need to decide after looking at their websites and deciding what you like.

∙ 12y agoBy looking at reviews and by personal experience I would say Blizzard Beach has good slides, but Typhoon Lagoon has a better wave pool, and pretty good slides, so I would pick Typhoon Lagoon.

Two water parks in Disney?
The First one is Typhoon Lagoon which opened on June 1, 1989 and is home to the world's largest outdoor wave pool. The theme of the park is the "Disney legend" of a typhoon that wreaked havoc upon a formerly pristine tropical paradise. The Second on is Blizzard Beach which opened on April 1, 1996 and was the third WDW water park after River Country and Typhoon Lagoon. The theme of the park is the "Disney legend" of a freak snowstorm in the area, leading to the construction of Florida's first ski resort. Naturally, the snow didn't last long, leaving behind a collection of waterlogged but snow-less ski jumps and chair lifts. The failed resort was in the process of closing for good when an alligator was seen sliding down a flume and splashing into a pool of water, screaming "Yahoo!" Thus the "ski resort" was reborn as a water park, with the alligator (named "Ice Gator") as mascot. The third one was called Fort Wilderness River Country or just River Country. On January 20, 2005, The Walt Disney Company announced that River Country would remain closed permanently. No reason was given that I could find.
