A Character From the Movie: The Little Mermaid

Common or Rare: Rarely Makes Appearancs at Special Events     (Click to see common/rare scale)

Note: Fully admit our family is taking a break from Disney and are no longer updating this site at this time (2009). Information is probably out-of-date.

Best Spot for meeting this character (if there is one!): In front of Ariel's Grotto at the dance party, as part of the Princess and Pirate parties taking place at Magic Kingdom

Your Chances of Finding This Character: If you are at one of the parties, you probably have a good chance to dance with Fantail! Click to read about the Princess and Pirates parties and see if one is coming up

General Info: Fantail is an exhuberant fishy character from the 1989 Disney movie The Little Mermaid. I think she is one of the characters in the musical number Under The Sea. And I fully admit I need to rewatch the movie to figure out exactly which character she is! At Disney World, she debuted as a new character in early 2007. She, along with other Little Mermaid characters, have been dancing with guests at the Princess and Pirate parties that take place on certain nights at Magic Kingdom. The dance party takes place in front of Ariel's Grotto - can't miss it with all the music they blare! Can be a bit hard to get individual photos with Fantail, but it's do-able! We suspect Fantail will be a special events character only. We never heard of her out on non-special-event days, so Princess and Pirate Parties is the place to be!


Where to meet Fantail:

Special - (Princess and Pirates Party) - In Front of Ariel's Grotto in Fantasyland (Magic Kingdom)

Character Hunting Tips: - Finding a beloved character can be a child (or adult's!) highlight of a trip to Disney World! On this page, we listed a character we met, also the places we seen this character on our week-long trips (Jan 2003, May 2003, Oct 2003, Jan 2004, April 2004, Oct/Nov 2004, April 2005, Oct 2005, December 2005, January 2006, May 2006, November 2006, February 2007, September 2007, January 2008, October 2008). Some characters were found by some fellow character hunters who were nice enough to help us out! Unfortunately, we aren't local to Florida (wish we were!!!), so we certainly don't know everything about every character! But we tried to list good places to look and recent reliable sightings of that character!

Must say, sometimes finding a favorite character can be difficult! One day you may see a bunch of characters in one spot, and the next day - not one! Some characters may be everywhere on one trip, and nowhere the next! And some characters come out only for 10 minute meets, then don't return for hours! Yikes! Your best bet to find your favorite character is to read various character websites (check links here!), or ask at Guest Relations at a Disney World park or resort (sometimes they can tell you where a character is meeting people that day), or check the Times Guide Map that you pick up when you enter the Disney World parks. Or just wander around and constantly look everywhere you go! Good luck character hunting!!
