The Little Mermaid ~ Ariel's Undersea Adventure, Dark ride at Disney California Adventure, United States.

Guests board clamshell vehicles that travel through underwater scenes recreating moments from The Little Mermaid film with animatronic characters and musical sequences.

The attraction opened in 2011 at Disney California Adventure after initial development plans from the 1990s for other Disney parks were not implemented.

The ride incorporates musical compositions by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman from the 1989 animated film, performed through both original recordings and new voice talent.

The Omnimover system accommodates 1,900 riders per hour through a six-minute journey, with modified vehicles available for guests requiring wheelchair accessibility.

The exterior design features a grand 20th-century aquarium structure crowned by a King Triton statue, marking the entrance to the underwater adventure.
