Nestled behind Dumbo the Flying Elephant in Fantasyland (which lies directly behind Cinderella Castle), Ariel’s Grotto serves as a meet and greet area for the popular star of Disney’s animated classic, The Little Mermaid. In addition, to autograph signings and photos, the colorful Grotto features a water play area.
Ariel’s Grotto typically opens at 10 AM and lines are usually very long, so arrive later in the afternoon if possible. Don’t forget to bring your camera and autograph book! Dining opportunities near Ariel’s Grotto include Pinocchio Village Haus and Scuttle’s Landing.
