Disney's Blizzard Beach
A water park themed as “Florida’s melted ski resort,” with its signature Summit Plummet slide dropping nearly vertically from about 37 metres.
Blizzard Beach opened in 1995 and is set as a ski resort that melted in a heat wave. A chairlift takes you up to the summit of the snowy mountain. Summit Plummet drops about 37 metres at speeds of up to roughly 90 km/h, making it one of the tallest and fastest free-fall slides in the world. Other attractions include multi-person racing slides, family rafts and a children’s area. Opening seasons follow the Disney official website. The park is near Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and resort hotels offer free bus shuttles.
