Typhoon Lagoon Water Park®
Typhoon Lagoon is a water park located at the Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida, United States and is the second water park at Walt Disney World.
The park, which opened on June 1, 1989, 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. Ships, fishing gear and surfboards are strewn about where the storm flung them. The centerpiece of the park is "Miss Tilly," a shrimp boat impaled upon a mountain named "Mount Mayday" that erupts a 50-foot (15 m) geyser of water every half hour, right before the bells of the watch sound on Miss Tilly. Typhoon Lagoon's mascot is “Lagoona Gator,” and he is related to Blizzard Beach's mascot Ice Gator.
In 2012, Typhoon Lagoon admitted approximately 2,100,000 visitors, currently making it the most visited water park in the world.

Gangplank Falls

Type: Water Ride
Description: Gather the gang for a raft ride in a giant inner tube with room enough for 4 people! Get swept away by rushing rapids down a 300-foot-long waterslide aboard a 4-person inner tube. Big kids, teens and adults can all climb in and whoosh through rocky caverns, beneath drenching waterfalls and under rustic wooden bridges on their path down the mountain—all while rotating this way and that and banking from side to side.
