Ever feel like a pro when you get out on the water at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon? Well, thankfully we’ve never had to share the Surf Pool with an Olympic Surfer so our surfing ego can stay intact! Caroline Marks recently spent some time enjoying Typhoon Lagoon. Check out the details and video below from DisneyParksBlog:
Caroline Marks can’t stay away from the water for long! After earning her spot on the 2020 U.S, Olympic surf team, Caroline headed to Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon with her family for some fun in the sun. Her first stop during the visit was testing out Typhoon Lagoon’s state-of-the-art Surf Pool. Caroline also jumped on the newest Disney Water Parks attraction Miss Adventure Falls with her brothers. Make sure to follow Caroline during her road to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, where she will compete in the first ever Olympic surf competition.
Check out the video of Caroline’s rad day catching waves at Typhoon Lagoon. And if you’re planning a trip to Walt Disney World, add the Disney Water Parks to your travel itinerary with the upgraded 4-Park Magic Ticket.
