    Agréable découverte de cette attraction, inédite pour nous autres Français. Beaucoup de poésie. le passage avec la chanson « under the sea » est vraiment magnifique. Sans compter l’extérieur de l’attraction qui vous replonge directement dans le film. À la période où j’y suis allé je n’ai jamais fait plus de 20min d’attente, souvent moins le matin ou en fin de journée.

    Unfortunately one of the most beloved franchises ride has been allowed to become dated. Not only that, was not fully functional when we rode (can tell you how many time we heard the prerecorded excuse from Sebastian)

    Another quintessential family dark ride in the middle of Magic Kingdom, Under the Sea represents the classic animated 1989 film The Little Mermaid and boy does it do a splendid job. Her grotto and encounter with Ursula are highlights here, as well as Disney’s execution of the relevantly decorated/themed wait line environment - a few pictures included.

    This ride has such fun vibes and a great atmosphere, especially if you’re a fan of the movie. The music, colors, and theming really pull you in. That said, some of the animatronics feel dated and could use an update. Overall still a fun, family-friendly ride that’s worth doing at least once, especially for families with kids!
