One year after the events of Prince Caspian, Lucy and Edmund Pevensie are staying with their cousin Eustace Scrubb, while Susan and Peter are in America. When water pours from a painting of a ship on the ocean hanging in Lucy’s bedroom, Lucy, Edmund and Eustace are transported into an ocean in Narnia.
They are rescued by the ship from the painting. Its crew includes Caspian and Reepicheep, as well as a small number of Narnians, including two minotaurs named Tavros and Jemain. Caspian informs them they are on the Dawn Treader. Three years have passed, Caspian has brought peace between Narnia, Galma, Archenland, and Calormen, and now he seeks the seven Lords of Narnia whom his uncle Miraz banished when he usurped the Narnian throne.
They visit the Lone Islands, a Narnian colony invaded by Calormen. They soon learn that the inhabitants have lived a miserable life on the islands, with dozens of pirates guarding them and selling many for slaves. Caspian and Edmund are captured and imprisoned while Lucy and Eustace are sold as slaves. Caspian meets one of the lost lords, Lord Bern, who reveals that those who cannot be sold are sacrificed to a mysterious green mist. The Dawn Treader crew rescues them, killing Pug, Governor Gumpas, and all their men, and they reclaim the Lone Islands from the Calormenes. Bern gives Caspian one of the seven swords originally given to the lords. Later, it was discovered that Gael,the young daughter of one of Caspian's men, has stowed away aboard the ship, but is recently accepted by the crew.
At another island Lucy is abducted by invisible Dufflepuds who force her to enter the manor of Coriakin to recite a visibility spell from his Book of Incantations. Lucy rips out a page that contains a beauty incantation before reciting the visibility spell, making Coriakin and the Dufflepuds visible. Coriakin explains that he cast the invisibility spell to protect the Dufflepuds from the mist, and informs the crew that they must defeat the mist by laying the seven swords of the lost Lords at Aslan's Table on Ramandu's Island, which they can reach by following a blue star. While journeying Lucy casts the beauty incantation, transforming into Susan. She finds herself at a party with Edmund and Peter, who recognize her as Susan and do not know of Lucy or Narnia. Realizing she no longer exists as Lucy, she awakens from the vision of the party returned to her normal self. Aslan reveals himself through a mirror, reminding Lucy not to doubt herself and explaining that her siblings only know of Narnia because of her.
The crew visits a volcanic island. Edmund, Lucy and Caspian discover a pool that can turn anything into gold, including Lord Restimar. Edmund and Caspian fight each other over who should own the pool, but Lucy warns them that they are being tempted. Eustace discovers a treasure that he begins stealing. While Edmund and Caspian look for Eustace they discover Lord Octesian's skeleton. A dragon attacks the Dawn Treader and abducts Edmund. The dragon has made fire on the ground forming the words "I AM EUSTACE". The Pevensies, Caspian, Reepicheep, and a few crew members spend the night on shore keeping Eustace company. Reepicheep comforts Eustace, who helps everyone the next day, after Gael spots the blue star.
The crew arrive at Ramandu's Island and discover Aslan’s Table with three lost lords asleep around it. As they place the swords on the table they realise one is still missing. The star descends from the sky and turns into a beautiful young woman; Lilliandil, Ramandu's daughter. She guides them to the location of the last sword; the Dark Island, lair of the mist. The crew voyages to the island and discovers Rhoop, the last surviving Lord. Rhoop warns them not to think of their fears but Edmund fails, his fear manifesting as a sea serpent that attacks the ship. Betraying the group, Rhoop throws his sword at Eustace, stabbing him. Eustace flies away, landing on a sandy island and encountering Aslan, who transforms him back into a boy and sends him to Ramandu's island with Rhoop's sword. The mist tries distracting Edmund by appearing as Jadis, the White Witch. Eustace overcomes the mist as it tries to restrain him, and puts Rhoop's sword on the table, awaking the three sleeping lords and destroying the mist; the sea serpent dies and the sacrificed people, including Gael's mother, reappear.
Eustace rejoins Lucy, Edmund, Caspian and Reepicheep and they sail to a sea covered in lilies, eventually finding a shore before a massive wave. Aslan appears to them and tells them that His country lies beyond, although if they go they may never return. Reepicheep decides to enter, and Aslan blesses him before he paddles a coracle above the wave. Aslan opens a portal in the wave to send Lucy, Edmund and Eustace home, telling them that Lucy and Edmund will never return to Narnia. Aslan encourages them to know Him in their world by another name, and tells Eustace that he may return. Edmund and Lucy bid farewell to Caspian and Aslan before entering the portal with Eustace. The three are returned to the bedroom at Eustace's house.
Eustace is being called by his mother as Jill Pole comes to visit and the three watch the painting as the ship disappears behind the waves.
