Our tips:

The Whirlpool

The Whirlpool is the teacup ride of Mermaid Lagoon. In a cup of colourful seaweed you spin around in a swirling whirlpool. The ride lasts about 1.5 minutes.

The concept

In Ariel's underwater world, the cups are made of seaweed. They are swept along by a whirlpool. According to Disney you need to be careful, or you really will get dizzy.

The experience

Each cup seats 4 people. The cups spin around and swing through the whirlpool. It is indoors and a little dark. You cannot steer the cup yourself, so the spinning happens automatically.

The cups spin quite a bit. Not straight after eating.

Child on lap

A small child can sit on your lap.

Our verdict

The Whirlpool is a fun twist on the classic teacup ride. Short and cheerful, as long as you can handle spinning. Combine it with Blowfish Balloon Race and Jumpin' Jellyfish in the same area. With small children you can fit in a few rides in no time.
