ATTIRE

The attraction’s ambient temperature is cooler than what native Floridians experience on most days. We suggest wearing long pants and bringing hats and gloves. Closed-toes shoes are required. For the little ones, we suggest bringing an extra change of clothes if they play in the snow area; they will get wet.
