The Seas with Nemo & Friends, a whimsical and visually stunning attraction for guests of all ages, opens at Walt Disney World Resort in Fall 2006 (in fact, "soft openings" are expected to begin within a few days). This attraction anchors the newly renamed and re-launched The Seas with Nemo & Friends pavilion in Epcot. Picking up where the motion picture Finding Nemo left off, the ride-through attraction in a colorful coral reef setting features technology that magically enables the stars of the motion picture to swim amid the marine life in a 5.7-million-gallon saltwater environment -- one of the largest such aquariums in the world.
Guests aboard "clamobiles" first meet Mr. Ray and his class on a field trip and soon learn that Nemo has wandered off. The journey in search of Nemo includes familiar characters such as Dory, Bruce, Marlin, Squirt and Crush. These deep-sea friends inhabit a variety of vibrant vignettes, including the actual aquarium containing more than 65 species of marine life. In the musical finale, Nemo is happily reunited with his father and friends.
The Future World pavilion The Seas with Nemo & Friends is an imaginative mix of fantasy with real sea life and interactive experiences such as the breakthrough "Turtle Talk With Crush."
