The Mermaid is located on the bow of a ship at the entrance to Under the Sea - The Journey of the Little Mermaid ride in Fantasyland.
'Under the Sea- Journey of the Little Mermaid has an exterior featuring Prince Erik's castle and a lot of carved rock work. It also adds a cute interactive “scavenger hunt” experience in the queue. Guests can help crabs sort Ariel's underwater treasures by pointing at items on screens. An animatronic Scuttle the seagull shows off the booty in one of the pre-show scenes.
The ride uses an Omnimover system (in which the vehicles move through the scenes on a never-ending conveyor belt) and “clammobile” cars that are similar to the ones found at Epcot's charming The Seas with Nemo and Friends ride. The attraction retells the fairy tale as depicted in Disney’s classic animated film, albeit in a greatly condensed, and somewhat abrupt, form.
The ride’s dazzling animatronics include a diminutive Sebastian the Crab with tiny rear-projected eyes and an Ariel whose red ‘do appears to bob and float under the sea. Speaking of “Under the Sea,” the signature song sets the stage for one of the attraction's scenes. Another scene features an enormous Ursula the Sea Witch undulating to “Poor Unfortunate Souls.” '
