The cartoon was made by north-americans and voiced by them originally. That doesn't represent the setting at all. The NA never had the castles and monarchy that Disney Cartoons often represent.
Anime has stories that don't take place in japan and yet everyone is talking perfect japanese. The voices and even language of the characters don't at all represent where the characters are from in cartoons.
The setting for the little mermaid is more than likely a northern europe country considering who the author of the story originally is.

There is no way that took place in North America. There is no city that is built like that and we have no Princes. I am betting standard, cartoon "Europe" which is just Spain, France, England and Germany all mashed into one country.
Caribbean is central America.
Sebastian is Jamaican.
There is a hurricane, which is frequent in the Carribean
Water is light-blueish, warmer temperatures.
The cook is French (French Colony).
Prince's Kingdom is probably English, song references Caspian Sea however.

Considering they incorporate many accent for a variety of side-characters, I think we should account for it. Even if we don't, the way the company portrays Northern regions is not in line with how The Little Mermaid is portraying their settings. Flounder is named Flounder, but is obviously a more exotic, bright-coloured fish.
We can just say Denmark and forget everything, but I would definitely say this is Caribbean before I would say North Europe.

off topic but are there any disney movies where characters have european accents, I wouldn't be surprised if all white characters sound american No. Yes and No. Main protagonist is always American and people attribute it to Culture Industry Theory (Antagonists are usually with the foreign accent, you can start having conspiracy theories now). All characters, of any ethnic group or origin, are American-voiced for all animation films (off-hand statement)
This goes for a lot of media. With the Harry Potter books, the nationality and race of harry was changed for a lot of countries.

Now I have to watch the movie again. I give up.

See look how great a GD thread is

If Ariel just stayed in her mermaid outfit and then had Eric on that boat, he would have kissed her so much fucking faster.
If I had some chick on my tugboat wearing a handmade shell-bikini, I'd be on her like rice and raw fish

So if she lived under water her whole life, her hair must be foul. Like filled with algae and other grossness and have a stench radius. The more I am thinking about this, the more unappealing it is sounding.

under the sea last time i checked
theres an entire fucking song about it

Mermaids live near the shores and reefs where they can lure sailors down to drown them and then eat them. I mean, that's the myths I grew up with before Disney decided we needed an undersea princess.

there

someone already said it cant be near north america cus we have no royalty so no prince
|
can't be anywhere in the planet then, something won't add up no matter where you look. Makes more sense for it to be a caribbean place than Denmark.
They managed to place The Princess and the Frog in New Orleans
It seems Disney put them under the sea before you reach Polynesia/Hawaii in a Disney ride around the world. So that's a somewhat official thing.
