Five Tips for Staying Cool at the Hottest Theme Park Resort in the World - Disney World
1.
) Bring a Hat Most people are smart enough to remember light-colored shorts and Tees, but it takes more than that to ward off the sun's rays! Not only does a hat protect your face from getting burned, but you also will be genuinely surprised at how much of a difference a hat makes in regulating your temperature.
Be sure to pack one for every member of the family, kids, adults, teens, and so on! 2.
) Travel-sized sunscreen Once again, the difference between over-heating and being comfortable seems to be found in the difference between what "most people" remember, and what a select, few remember.
Don't be like "most people" who remember to bring a big bottle of sunscreen to apply in the resort hotel room.
Be that intelligent someone who remembers a travel sized sunscreen that fits in your purse, fanny pack, man purse, etc.
That way, you can reapply throughout the day to avoid getting a sunburn.
3.
) Check Out Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon Walt Disney World Resort doesn't have the world's 2 most-visited water parks for nothing.
To help stay cool under the hot Florida sun, nab a shady spot in Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon and spend your day enjoying water slides, water rides, and fun beach-y attractions.
Be sure to get to the parks early to grab a prime spot, and even consider bringing a picnic to add to that authentic day at the beach feel - though the restaurants in the water parks are nothing short of amazing, of course.
4.
) Be the Man (or Woman) With the Plan Planning your day ahead of time not only allows you to see more of what Walt Disney World has to offer due to less time spent "flying by the seat of your pants," but it also allows you to schedule "AC" breaks.
After a few outdoor attractions, you can plan an exploration of an indoor, air conditioned one to serve as a break from the heat.
Plan a siesta time during the heat spike in the afternoon to catch a show, eat a snack, or check out an indoor attraction for about an hour.
Building breaks into your schedule is a good way to avoid wasting time while at Walt Disney World Resort wandering around trying to stay cool.
5.
) Hydrate Bottled water at the park is expensive, and Florida tap water tastes pretty bad, so find a way to bring a pack of bottled water of your own.
This may be as simple as bringing it from home, if you're driving, to taking a cab to a grocery store if you flew in - don't worry, you'll still save money.
Water in the park costs more that $2 a bottle! Staying hydrated, along with the rest of these tips, is essential in your battle against the heat, and may make the difference between over-heating and feeling a bit warm, but otherwise perfectly comfortable.
