How to Unlock Ariel in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Before you meet Ariel for the first time, you must have access to the raft in Dazzle Beach. If you don’t have the raft unlocked, head to Dazzle Beach, cross over to the island with the pillar, and look for the wooden oar on the ground. Doing this initiates the Mysterious Wreck quest, where Goofy will assist you in fixing the boat.

Once you finish Mysterious Wreck, travel on the raft to the island where Ariel resides. Upon speaking to her, you’ll start The Lonely Island, a quest that prompts you to build a house for Ariel so she can return to the Valley. Place her Sea Castle in the ocean along Dazzle Beach to wrap up the quest. Ariel will appear in the village, allowing you to begin befriending her!

Unlike many other characters in the game, you won’t find Ariel casually walking around on land. After all, she is a mermaid. Instead, she’ll swim around various bodies of water in the Valley. If you’ve had Ursula in your village for a while, you might already be used to this. Thankfully, she frequently appears in small ponds and rivers that are easy to access.

Disney Dreamlight Valley is available to play on PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation platforms through the official website.
