[@Darkstar1484]

I rode it years ago, I think about 7 or 8 years ago. And I remember thinking it was kind of disjointed. Back then atlantis could be seen more due to lighting but it still felt really weird. A Mermaid tells you to come closer, that stupid sea horse thing popping up at spots in atlantis, mermaid gets angry and starts shapeshifting, then the green eyed gorgon thing lunges out at you which was a good jumpscare at least. But then after the splash we go back up, see what I think was a wrecked ship with the mermaid/gorgon thing laughing and the beetlejuice theme playing. To put it mildly I was confused.

[@rayallie]

ikr, the ride is so stupid now, no theme at all :/

[@Laurtew]

Okay, I feel better. I rode this for the first time a year ago and spent most of the ride trying to figure out what was happening. What did that creepy sea horse have to do with, why did it go from happy people to screaming. Knowing it is missing parts and not that *I* missed parts makes me feel much better.

[@TheLegendofLexie]

It's really disappointing to watch a ride/attraction just be abandoned and put on the back burner. I remember this ride being so much fun when I was younger. The speed of the roller coaster aspect made it feel like we were truly trying to escape from the evil siren. The ride was so full of life with it's use of dark ride magic like neon paints, projections, and fiber optics and the bigger special effects elements such as the giant siren lunging at you and the shaking chandelier that looked like it was falling on you, they just made the ride good! It's a real shame that instead of improving these elements with upgrades or something, they're just turned off and not bothered with. It's just sad because the ride is still popular as it is a water ride in a theme park in Orlando, it's so much fun on a hot summer day. They should really look into giving it some love

And then allura said “what’s happening oh no” then flashing strobe lights flash at the Medusa figure that pops out at you. And then green strobe looks at you turns off when the doors opens.

[@cyclicmusings2661]

When I was 11 years old on my first trip to SeaWorld Orlando, I was too scared to ride Journey to Atlantis and Kraken, and in 2005 these were the only thrill rides in the park. I returned nearly 20 years later and rode all 5 coasters (the 6th, Penguin Trek was and still is? under construction), Infinity Falls, and Journey To Atlantis. Looking back on it, I can't believe I was scared of Journey to Atlantis as a child. Now, I went in blind and expected it to be like Splash Mountain but was pleasantly surprised it had some coaster elements, was a fairly unique ride, and the drop wasn't that big of a deal. But I could tell time hasn't been kind to the ride after over 25 years - it appears to have had more effects that stopped working or were removed, there were parts of the track that looked like it might have been underwater at some point and now felt like the boat was riding in a drained pool. And I notice some small areas that were literal crumbling away, like some plaster work had come off and I could see the steel mesh and frames underneath and definitely didn't feel like part of the theming, but straight up disrepair. The ride was missing something and this video confirms to me that it did have more effects and something of a story because when I rode it there wasn't much of a plot to the ride - just thrill. Also I found the way the boats drained water was kind of weird - like on the inclines it appeared to have some drainage that would prevent the water from simply rolling down inside the boat but didn't work properly? In any case this was a fun ride and I hope it does get some TLC because it was a bit rough, tired looking, and dare I say lifeless? from my first impressions.

This ride was the scariest thing ever when I was a child

[@dlmcc1987]

This looks like the worst ride ever, besides the music lol, exposed hoses, then you go from an underwater city to exposed roof tops...hahahaha

I live pretty close to where it’s located. Sea world doesn’t really focus on rides, it’s more of an aquarium with a few aquatic themed rides.

Fun fact, that intro video used to be much longer until lines were so bad that they shortened it by a lot.

When I was younger I was always scared by the Medusa head but I remembered it being directly above the boat.🤔

[@smileallthetime299]

Built in 1998? So they remolded it since then? Never been there, even though I live less then a hour away. :(

[@Totes1829]

This ride scared the absolute shit out of me when I was younger
