Program Description

Event Details

From local swimming spot, to roadside attraction, to state park - the only constant at Weeki Wachee Springs over its 75 year history is the mermaid performances. Entertaining audiences since 1947, this unique roadside attraction has a natural spring with water at a constant temperature of 72-74 degrees. That’s refreshing! Join Rebecca Schwandt, historian and archivist, for a “deep dive” into the springs’ past.
