Journey of Water, Inspired by Moana is a walkthrough attraction at EPCOT's World Nature, based on Disney's 2016 animated feature film Moana.

It was originally scheduled set to open in 2021. However, it was delayed to October 16, 2023, as part of the park's 40th anniversary celebration, which is part of the Disney 100 Years of Wonder anniversary celebration, since the opening was postponed indefinitely following the closure of the park due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Summary

Journey of Water is a garden featuring interactive fountains and other water features leading from the current Innoventions Plaza (replacing much of Innoventions West) down to The Seas Pavilion. Anchored by a 16 foot tall topiary figure of Te Fiti, Journey of Water serves as a whimsical exploration of the water cycle and how it sustains our world.
