Happy 75th Anniversary to ! Here’s a collection of the episodes we’ve done over the past few years with Weeki Wachee mermaids - from those getting their first taste of the spring at mermaid camp to the Legendary Sirens who are swimming into their 7th decade of mermaiding. We have been so honored to share even a little of these incredible stories. The magic of the spring is deep, just like our love for Weeki Wachee!!!
