& you cannot forget the water parks! 💦💦💦

And one of our favorite reasons of “But it’s sooo hot there!” list of why we think visiting theme parks during the summer months is a fantastic idea and how to beat the heat. (reminder, it’s hot where you are too)

9. WATER PARKS! The scorching summer heat is no match for the refreshing water attractions found within these theme parks. Disney World boasts Typhoon Lagoon with the largest wave pool in North America, and Blizzard Beach with one of the world’s tallest and fastest free fall waterslides. At Universal Orlando, you can slide into the thrilling world of water rides at Volcano Bay, a tropical oasis that guarantees exhilaration and relaxation in equal measure while using virtual wait lines.

Read tomorrow's post with the 10th and last reason to not let the heat keep you from visiting Orlando this Summer!

Yes, Part 4! 😎😎😎

More on “But it’s sooo hot there!” reasons why we think visiting theme parks during the summer months is a fantastic idea and how to beat the heat. (reminder, it’s hot where you are too)

7. Water Attractions and Splash Zones: Get set to get wet! With temperatures soaring, what a better way to beat the heat than by indulging in refreshing water attractions? Both Walt Disney World and Universal Studios Orlando boast an array of water-based rides and splash zones that provide relief from the sun. Take a change of clothes or just get wet and let the heat dry you. Cool down and have fun without ever leaving the theme park.
8. Indoor Attractions = Air Conditioning: In the heat of the day, escape indoors! There are so many rides, and shows at both Disney World and Universal Orlando that it’s easy to find one or more to sit down and cool off. Did you know Epcot in Disney World has one of the largest man made ocean environments on the planet.

Keep following for more reasons to not let the heat keep you from visiting Orlando this summer. Have I mentioned that there are some great summer discounts for both Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando?

Part 3! Still not too late to book for summer! 😎 (Nighttime Spectaculars are my favorite!💜)

Reasons 5 & 6 of our “But it’s sooo hot there!” reasons why we think visiting theme parks during the summer months is a fantastic idea an how to beat the heat. (reminder, it’s hot where you are too)

5. Seasonal Events: Starting July 27, at Walt Disney World, you can immerse yourself in the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival, savoring delicious culinary delights from around the world. Continuing until July 5, enjoy the Flower & Garden Festival. Universal Studios offers the electrifying Summer Concert Series, featuring renowned musicians who will serenade you under the starry night sky.
6. Summer Night Spectaculars: When the sun sets, the parks come alive with mesmerizing night spectaculars. Disney World's Magic Kingdom showcases the enchanting Happily Ever After fireworks and projection show, while Epcot features the dazzling Epcot Forever fireworks display. Universal Orlando’s Islands of Adventure features Nighttime Lights at Hogwarts with a fireworks display.

Read more tomorrow for reasons 7 & 8 to not let the heat keep you from visiting Orlando in the Summer.

Part 2! ✌🏼

Continuing our “But it’s soooo hot there!” reasons why we think visiting theme parks during the summer months is a fantastic idea and how you can manage the heat. (reminder, it’s hot where you are too)

3. We recommend taking a break during the hottest part of the day and play in the pool. All Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando resorts have a pool. No need to pack towels and life vests; they are provided. You can have lunch, relax, splash, slide, and maybe nap.
4. Take advantage of EARLY PARK and EXTENDED PARK HOURS. An advantage to staying on property is early park hours. Get up, get going, and beat the crowds and the heat. Then take a break during the day (see reason 3) and go back to the park in the early evening.

BTW Both Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando have summer vacation offers!

Keep following along this week as we list even more reasons to not let the heat keep you from visiting Orlando in the Summer.

Did someone say lower crowds?! 👀

“But it’s soooo HOT there!” Guess what? It’s hot everywhere: it’s probably hot where you are right now. So why not go be hot somewhere fun?

While some may be wary of visiting theme parks during the summer months due to the heat and crowds, there are many reasons summer is one of the best times to experience the fun of Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando.

1. LESS CROWDED. Traditionally Summer has been the busiest time at the parks. That trend has shifted to Spring Break, Fall Break, and holidays, resulting in a shorter, busier, and more stressful vacation. Plan your visit during the less crowded summer to enjoy shorter wait times and a more relaxed atmosphere.
2. Summer allows for more flexibility in planning your visit. It’s easier to coordinate schedules with family, extended family and friends during the summer when school is out and parents have time off work.

Follow along over the next few days as we list even more reasons we think Orlando in the Summer is a fantastic idea.
