Weeki Wachee Springs State Park

The official home of the Famous Mermaids! Weeki Wachee Springs State Park is an enchanted spring - the only one of its kind -- and one of Florida’s oldest and most unique roadside attractions. For almost 60 years, the fun, family oriented park has lured in visitors with beautiful mermaids who swim in the cool, clear spring waters. Weeki Wachee Springs is a magical entrance into a mysterious blue underwater world of mermaids, manatees, turtles and bubbles. You can can swim at Buccaneer Bay, see the Misunderstood Creatures animal show or take a riverboat ride down the Weeki Wachee River. Visitors can pose with mermaids and even swim in the springs with the new Sea Diver program. Buccaneer Bay Waterpark is a true piece of Roadside America. Located inside Weeki Wachee Springs State Park, it features five awesome waterslides, three of which drop you off in natural Weeki Wachee Springs! If you’re a thrill seeker, try the exhilarating fun-filled flume!
