You should protect yourself from Florida’s sun while playing in the water or working on your tan, even on cloudy days. In addition to swim wear, be sure to bring sunblock or buy some at the park.

Keep things simple and portable, especially when traveling with kids. The last thing you want to do is juggle personal items around and feel weighed down. Streamline your necessities for a smoother day.

Bring water, buy water or ask for free water and ice in a cup at any of the quick-service restaurants and eateries for your family. With all the excitement, someone might forget to stay adequately hydrated.

It's best to steer your kids away from experiences where you know they won't meet the height requirements, even if it's just half an inch. Safety comes first, and Cast Members won't budge on height requirements.

This is Florida. Chances are it might rain. But seeing as you are already at a water park, you probably are not concerned with getting wet. Still, heed any warnings about leaving the water should they be made.

It’s smart to make time for breaks to avoid exhaustion or meltdowns. Everyone will feel refreshed by heading back to the hotel for an afternoon nap or cool dip in the pool.

Let a Cast Member know about your need to ride switch to accommodate small children or guests with special needs. One guest will wait at a designated area with the non-rider while a second guest rides. The riders then switch.
