On October 17, 2007 Disney announced that a new Little Mermaid dark ride attraction would be built as a part of the refurbishment of Paradise Pier in Disney's California Adventure <ref> http://allears.net/dlr/news/dca_exp.htm </ref>. When designing the new ride, Imagineers built a 1/4 inch scale model and then a 1 inch sale model of the attraction so that they could "ride" through it <ref name= "press"/>. On June 3, 2011 the attraction opened to guests as The Little Mermaid- Ariel's Undersea Adventure <ref> http://allears.net/dlr/tp/dca/ariels.htm </ref>. This dark ride attraction took guests through the story of the Little Mermaid and featured the songs "Poor Unfortunate Souls", "Kiss the Girl", "Under the Sea" and "Part of Your World".

The attraction begins with traveling through a hole in Prince Eric's ship. Here, they see Scuttle who clumsily tries to tell guests Ariel's story as he plays the accordion. After passing by the gull, the ride vehicles (which are shaped like clamshells) rotate backwards, as guests move along the beach, before being submerged underwater. As the clamshells travel through a rocky passage, guests can see Ariel and Flounder performing "Part of Your World" above.
