Disney's Typhoon Lagoon,
Walt Disney World Resort 
A Disney water park featuring the world's largest man-made wave pool. This is a must do water park and the wave pool is fantastic but a bit of advice, wear something on your feet in the wave pool as the "sandy" bottom can be a bit rough on your skin - especially if a wave catches you. At Disney's Typhoon Lagoon you can lay-out on the beach listening to some great beach music or just enjoy the lush tropical surroundings. Take a stroll round to Shark Reef where you can swim into a tank with real live sharks and schools of tropical fish. This saltwater adventure takes place on a reef around an overturned sunken tanker. Non-swimming Guests can even go inside the tanker and observe the sharks through portholes.

There's great dining at the unique Sci-Fi Dine-In Theatre, or The Hollywood and Vine.
