Weeki Wachee Springs lleva produciendo espectáculos en vivo de sirenas bajo el agua en un teatro de manantial natural desde 1947, siendo una de las atracciones más singulares y longevas de Florida. El manantial produce más de 100 millones de galones al día. El parque incluye Buccaneer Bay — un parque acuático construido sobre el canal del manantial — con toboganes, río lento y zonas de playa de arena. El espectáculo de sirenas se realiza bajo el agua.
Weeki Wachee Springs has operated live underwater mermaid performances in a natural spring theatre since 1947, making it one of Florida's most distinctive and longest-running attractions. The spring produces over 100 million gallons per day and maintains perfect clarity at a constant 22°C. The park includes Buccaneer Bay — a water park built around the spring run — with waterslides, a lazy river, and sandy beach areas. The mermaid show is performed underwater with performers breathing through air hoses while executing choreographed routines.
