  • I didn't know exactly what I was getting with this place. Something like the mermaid shows at Weeki Wachi Springs, maybe? My friend and I showed up to check out a mermaid convention being held in the hotel--gorgeous women (and some men) in elegant fish tails, sunbathing in the pool. We figured, "Hey, if these are the amateurs, the professional mermaids must be AMAZING..." Yeah, well, we were wrong. First off, the girls they get for this attraction wear full body suits, their tails look kinda... cheap... and then they're wearing goggles and nose clips. I figure the water's probably refrigerated and not really not really conducive to nearly naked underwater ballet. Their shows are every 15 minutes (during certain hours of the day) and last maybe 5 minutes, at most. The tank, which contains rays and fish, is filled with oxygen hoses. The girls are lowered into and lifted out of the pool on a swing-like seat. Once they're in the water, they swim for the oxygen hoses and then hang at the bottom and just wave at the kids until the swing appears in the water again, and they make a mad dash for it, sit on it, and get pulled out of the water. No tricks, no twirls or spins or loops or anything, just breathing through a hose and waving at the bottom where only the kids and their parents mobbing the tank could see. They only put one girl in the tank for each "show." Really, the whole illusion had no chance. Basic things like keeping the toes pointed and not poking out were just forgotten. It just looks like a semi-miserable person trapped in a tank with her legs together until she can leave. I'd have gotten a drink at the bar, but there wasn't anyone manning it. Seriously, the Bass Pro Shop adjacent to the tank was FAAAAAAAAR more interesting. The sole redeeming quality of this place is the jelly fish tank above the bar with the metal-looking, mermaid statue. If you want a free show that's just as cheesy, if not better, just hang around the Midway at Circus Circus.
