As previously announced, Under the Sea – Journey of the Little Mermaid is now temporarily closed for a brief refurbishment at Magic Kingdom.

Under the Sea – Journey of the Little Mermaid Closed for Refurbishment

As of Monday, July 21, the Fantasyland dark ride attraction is now closed for routine maintenance. Though no reopening date has been confirmed, it is expected to welcome guests once again starting this Saturday, July 26; the attraction has operating hours listed for that date on the Walt Disney World website.

Under the Sea – Journey of the Little Mermaid opened in 2012 as part of the New Fantasyland expansion to Magic Kingdom. The original version opened a year earlier at Disney California Adventure as The Little Mermaid — Ariel’s Undersea Adventure, replacing “Golden Dreams.” The attraction on both coasts is a slow-moving Omnimover dark ride that takes guests through the entire story of the animated version of “The Little Mermaid.”
