To coincide with the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, Blackbeard (the main antagonist in the film) replaced the Davy Jones projection on the waterfall on May 20 2011.
On September 19, 2012, in conjunction with International Talk like a Pirate Day, Disney announced that they would be adding another tie-in to On Stranger Tides to the attraction. On October 19, ghostly mermaids were added just after guests go under the waterfall. As the boats float by, the mermaids can be seen in the water as Jolly Sailor Bold plays in the background. On the nearby beach scene, a mermaid Skelton skeleton was also added at this time.
In 2015 Pirates of the Caribbean was closed for a major refurbishment. During this time, the attraction was cleaned, repaired and relighted. Other changes that occurred during the refurbishment included the addition of Davy Jones back onto the attraction's waterfall (he now rotates with Blackbeard) and the Audio Animatronics including Barbarossa, Jack Sparrow and the Redhead, were given new costumes. At this time a few new effects were added to the attraction including: new cannon effects, new lightning effects, the "drunk pirates" whiskey now being on fire, and new smells added throughout the attraction.
