It is HOT in Orlando right now, so for this week’s #MagicMonday we are breaking down the best spots in Magic Kingdom for you to duck out of the summer Florida sun and enjoy some much needed AC.

Magic Kingdom

The original Orlando park can be a sneaky one when it comes to heat. Many of its iconic lands leave you out to dry when it comes to shade. Tomorrowland and Frontierland both leave you pretty exposed and that problem gets even worse for families with kids riding rides like Aladdin’s Magic Carpet or Goofy’s Barnstormers, whose queues will leave you baking in the sun.

Pirates of the Caribbean

If you find yourself heating up in the back of the park (Adventureland or Frontierland). It might be a good idea to start checking that Pirates of the Caribbean wait time! Although the first part of the queue is outdoors, it is fully shaded, and the interior queue is like stepping into a cool, damp basement (in all the best ways). Plus, the ride itself is kept very cool by its waterways.

Carousel of Progress

If you are up toward the front of the park, head on over to the GREATEST AC BREAK IN ALL OF WDW, the one, the only, Carousel of Progress. There is never a queue for this capacity-machine of a show, making it an easy seat to cool off from the summer sun and get a fun little history in the meantime.

Those looking for slightly more excitement could cool off in Space Mountain too, but that’s on you.

My honorable mention stop is going to Columbia Harbor House near Haunted Mansion for it’s copious amounts of upstairs seating!

Stay tuned to #MagicMonday while we break down the best breaks at the other parks during the dead heat of summer. What is your go-to Magic Kingdom AC break spot?
