If your teeth chatter and you stay in for a few minutes, you will adjust. It's getting in and hopping out in a minute that isn't helpful.

We were in for 45 minutes, by the end of it, couldn’t feel my toes. I think my point here is, did anyone else find the pools cold or was it just due to time of year, and do they still heat then at all, I’m not asking for Disney to run me a bath each time I want to go for a swim lol

If they are heated to 82 degrees and you still find that cold, it's you. 82 is pretty warm and I cannot imagine it being warmer.

So to answer your questions, yes they are heated to 82. Obviously there are others who find that too cold but I would guess the majority are fine with it. Disney is very much into pleasing guests so I suspect they have found a temperature that works for most guests.

Coming from the UK, 28c is a very warm temperature. Therefore, the prompt for my question. Because it didn’t feel that warm.

We’ll see that’s what I thought! But certainly didn’t feel that warm, the water was very cold 😂 just wondered if it was only me

I have found the pools chilly also but then I get cold very quickly. It takes a lot for me to get into/stay in the water.

They do heat them and this hasn't changed. In the height of summer the sun adds to the heat quite a bit and of course the air temperature is also warmer which means it does not feel as cold when you are swimming on top of the water or on the side of the pool. 28c is about the average for a public swimming pool in the UK, which is what Disney heat all of their pools too.

28c is ideal swimming temperature. But unfortunately if its cold out, and your just bathing and you 'feel the cold' then it's probably going to feel a little chilly.

28 doesn't feel as warm in water as it does in the air.
