Guests who visit Walt Disney World love to spend plenty of time enjoying all that the four theme parks have to offer. Of the four, Epcot tends to be the favorite of many guests thanks to its unique attractions, entertainment, dining, and shopping. With so much to do and see in Epcot, guests spend a lot of time exploring the park which is mostly outdoors. With high temperatures, high humidity, and the strong Central Florida sun, guests might find themselves a little too hot and uncomfortable when spending time in Epcot.
