    Default DHS questions

    We're planning to do Typhoon Lagoon one day and then *probably* head over to DHS to do a couple of rides. We've never done TL and I'm not even sure where it is, but I know we'll have to leave TL, go to a resort, and get on that resort's bus to DHS. Any travel recommendations?

    Also, IF we're doing the day this way, I will have a bag full of wet towels & suits that I will NOT want to carry around. I know lockers are available at DHS (to the right after you get in?); do I need cash for them, or will they take credit cards or Magic Bands?

    TIA!

    Typhoon Lagoon is right across the street from Downtown Disney Westside (DisneyQuest/La Nouba).

    You pay for the locker at a counter, so, yes, they will take credit cards.

    From Typhoon to DHS: *Probably* best to head to the Boardwalk Resort. Then, you can either catch a boat from there to Studios, or, even take the scenic walkway. It's about a ten-minute walk from BW to DHS.

    Thanks, Jim! I was thinking Boardwalk was the way to go. They'll take credit cards; does anyone know if MB will be accepted for lockers?

    Wet towels? We are planning to go to TL for the first time on our next trip. I figured they would have towels there. Do we need to bring our own?

    I was under the impression that you had to bring towels to the water parks. I was planning on bringing some from the resort, not my own from home, but I was planning on returning them when we were done. If this assumption is wrong, someone please tell me! That might change my answer all together!

    It's been a couple of years- but they have towels for rent. I think it is $1 or $2.

    We always bring towels from the hotel and then leave them in the towel return at Typhoon Lagoon.

    If a towel return is available, then I would only need a small bag for our wet suits and wouldn't have to rent a locker at all. Thanks for the tip!
