It’s home to food, drinks, and so much fun. Continue reading to learn more about how you can spend your check-in day at Blizzard Beach.

Rent a Locker and Store Your Belongings If Needed

Blizzard Beach can’t store your luggage, so you’ll have to stop at your Disney resort first. Since your waterpark day has to be the same day as your check-in, you should prepare a bag ahead of time with all the supplies you’ll need. Sunscreen, feminine products, hats, sunglasses, water shoes, and even a waterproof case for your phone. Some guests even wear their swimsuits under their clothes so they don’t have to change when they arrive. Blizzard Beach does have locker rentals for your small items and personal bags.

Dare to Plunge Down Summit Plummet

Blizzard Beach’s largest slide is Summit Plummet. This attraction is for guests 48 inches or taller, and is only for those who really need a thrill. This slide is 12 stories tall, and the drop is nearly vertical. This attraction is quite extreme, so hitting it in the morning might be a good idea to avoid a long line of thrill-seekers.
