The Little Mermaid ~ Ariel's Undersea Adventure

The Little Mermaid ride at California Adventure Park is a great way to escape the heat and take a break. The line moves quickly, and the ride itself offers a calm, relaxing experience. Although it occasionally breaks down, as it did during our visit, the brief pause was actually a welcome relief, allowing us to enjoy the cool indoor environment after being outside for a while. Overall, it was a pretty enjoyable ride!

Such an adorable ride for anyone even though it is Little Mermaid theme. But all the little girls and all the adults Who Loved Little Mermaid are going to be in heaven. This is such a beautiful lady made ride. So much detail goes into all of the characters and the songs and the backdrop here. The line for the ride does get very long but the best part is that a lot of it is in the shade. If you have a genie plus pass then definitely use it here because you can shave off so much time.

My first time going on this ride and it was everything that I dreamed of. This was the ride. I wanted to go on as a kid the most, and now to be able to experience it as an adult was everything I ever wanted this ride will have you in all of your feels as you go through the whole story of Little mermaid and even the story of Ursula getting her voice it definitely makes you feel like you’re part of the cast and like you’re actually in the little mermaid movie. This one definitely brought tears to my eyes, and I can’t believe how much detail disney put into this.

The Little Mermaid is a condensed 3 minute ride of the entire picture. One of the reasons for its popularity is that the queue lines are under shelter and you are in a/c part of the way. It helps to get out of the heat now and then. The line does move fairly quickly as the moving clamshells are on a belt that do not stop. A cast member will direct you as to which one to take. You can take pictures but because of the movement they can get to be blurry. You follow Ariel though highlighted scenes as depicted in her songs. Watching "Under the sea" was my favorite part where you can immerse yourself in the journey of better life under the water. Ursula appears with her "poor unfortunate soul" and transforms Ariel into a human in exchange for her voice. Ariel meets Prince Erik and the show rapidly races to its conclusion-destruction of Flotsom and Jetsom as well as Ursula and then King Triton giving his beloved princess away in marriage. It's a sweetheart of a ride and a popular attraction.

Another fun character movie ride. It’s one of the newer ones and I love that it is similar to Peter Pans adventure where you actually feel like you submerge under water. The good thing about this ride too is that the line typically isn’t that long.
