Mistake Continuity: When King Triton destroys the stone statue of Prince Eric, you can clearly see that the statue's face explodes and breaks into pieces as well as the rest of the body. However, at the point a few minutes later when Arielle decides to meet the seawitch Ursula, she caresses the statue's face as a whole again.

Mistake Continuity: In the beginning when Ariel is watching the sailors dance on the ship the dog comes over and licks her face, but she wipes off the wrong cheek.

Mistake Continuity: When the wedding is taking place, the priest's cross turns upside down for one frame.

Mistake Continuity: After Eric's wedding, Ariel arrives at the ship without shoes, then she receives her voice back and just before they try to kiss, she's wearing shoes.

Mistake Continuity: When Grimsby is presenting the statue of Eric to the prince, one of the crew's shirts changes colour from white/black stripes to blue/black stripes.

Mistake Continuity: When Ariel is in the Prince's guest bedroom, the covers suddenly appear over her.

Mistake Continuity: When Sebastian is in Ariel's cavern with all her treasures, he accidentally gets his legs caught in a thimble. You can see it from the front, but when they show a shot from the back, it is gone.  In the following shot from the front, it is back on again.
