Marker Disneysea: Mermaid Lagoon

 

Near the base of El Fuego is a recreation of Atlantica, the underwater realm from The Little Mermaid. Here, guests can go under the sea and discover several delights for the family. While this area is mainly aimed at younger children, it has a few things for others too.

On the outsides of Atlantica, guests walk around a Mediterranean-inspired beach setting. Two bridges cross over to Arabian Coast while one bridge goes up to Magical Fjord. Out here is where guests find Ariel's Grotto, a dining experience with the princesses, and Kiss the Girl Fashions, a gift shop. Guests can also meet Ariel in the Mermaid Cavern. Most of the area, however, is inside Atlantica. It is an indoor space with special effects to make guests feel like they are underwater. This features the kiddie rides Blowfish Balloon Race, Jumping Jellyfish, The Whirlpool (which relates to the teacups), Flying Fish (which relates to Dumbo), and Sebastian's Scooters. Also in the area is Ariel's Playground and King Triton's Concert, a stage show inspired by the film. Whoosits and Whatsits is a gift shop while Mermaid Cafe is a restaurant.
Attractions:
28. Mermaid Cavern
29. Blowfish Balloon Race
30. Jumping Jellyfish
31. The Whirlpool
32. Flying Fish
33. Sebastian's Scooters
34. Ariel's Playground
35. King Triton's Concert

Dining:
36. Ariel's Grotto
37. Mermaid Cafe

Shopping:
38. Kiss the Girl Fasions
39. Whoosits and Whatsits

So this area is kind of a little kids area, but at least the nearby Arabian Coast has more emphasis on the family. Although I considered having the ride in DCA and the Magic Kingdom here, I decided I didn't want to put too much there. Not to mention, King Triton's Concert has a bit of retelling the film in it, so I didn't want to have two attractions doing that here.

    This looks cool! I’d love to see an immersive place that makes me feel like I’m under water-even if it is a kiddie land.

Marker Disney Studios: Buena Vista Street

Image
  When guests enter the park, they enter a recreation of 1923 Los Angeles, how it was when Walt Disney first came to the city. With many fictional businesses referencing his life and early career, this tributes the man who started it all. This street is shaped like an inverted 'L,' making it an interesting shape. When guests first walk into the studios, guests see a small park in the front of the street. This is where a statue of Walt and Mickey is known as "Storytellers." It is inspired by the statue seen in DCA, Tokyo Disneysea, and Shanghai Disneyland. On the left, guests can find help at the Studio Building. On the right, guests can learn more about Walt Disney at the One Man's Dream exhibition. Also nearby is the Celebrity Spotlight building, where guests can meet Disney characters. As guests go down the street, they see several shops and restaurants. On the left is The Studio Store, which is the largest store in the park, Clarabelle's Ice Cream, Disney B...

Marker Disneysea: Arabian Coast

  This Middle Eastern area is another family area, even though its rides are more family-centered than the ones in Mermaid Lagoon. This area has a theme based off the Arabian Nights stories, most especially Aladdin. When crossing over from Mermaid Lagoon, guests enter a Middle Eastern port. A dhow (Arabian boat) is seen nearby on the left. Also on the is Aladdin's Flying Carpets, a spinner ride where guests may get squirted by camels. Closeby is the Sultan's Palace restaurant, where guests can eat an authentic Middle Eastern cuisine, and the Caravan Carousel, a two-story carousel where guests ride camels. Guests can also shop at the nearby buildings, Open Sesame and 3 Wishes Bazaar. A snack stand known as the Eats of Agrabah is also nearby, as well as the station for the Marker Disneysea Steamer Line, which goes to Forgotten Rivers. Further up north past a second bridge to Mermaid Lagoon is a small, Arabian building where guests ride Sinbad's Storybook Voyage, a dark ride s...
